Tuna noodle casserole, my kid sister, & the baby undaddy
Last week I got an email about a sale (frugal alert!) on unlimited access memberships to one of the donor sites at which we’d been looking. Even though originally this type of membership sounded like a waste of money, eventually we decided seeing color, HD photos of our potential donors was too good to pass […]
Previously titled: Snocktober
The world is a very different place since the last time I posted a blog just 48 days ago. When I last blogged, Michael Jackson’s crazy doctor was still trying to explain away his lifetime supply of Propofol; Occupiers of Wall Street et al. were still occupying; and, Kim Kardashian was still married to that […]
Are You My Daddy?
Remember that children’s book “Are You My Mother?” It was one my favorites, even though a baby bird falling out of his nest and spending the next 15 pages trying to find his mother is a pretty tragic plot line for a children’s book. I remember feeling especially distressed when the baby bird climbs onto […]
Fenway’s more than a ballpahk, kid.
For as much excitement as I felt all day last Thursday, I was surprised at how calm I felt on the drive into Boston. Because you can never really predict how big of a shitshow Boston traffic will be, I had allowed us plenty of spare time to thread our way along Storrow Drive; crawl […]
Can I get some Ryan Gosling sperm, already?
If Ryan Gosling is going to play hard-to-get, then I guess my next option is still to attend the “Inseminar.” The long-awaited orientation for artificial insemination put on by Fenway Health Institute, is finally upon us. So, naturally, I’m feeling a little jittery tonight. It doesn’t actually put us any closer to getting me pregnant, […]
Conversations about making babies: March 6, 2011
I have an obsession with teen soaps. I don’t get tired of watching them, and I don’t care how outrageous the drama gets. Give me drug overdoses; give me underage drinking; give me date rape; give me nanny Carrie, crazy as a shit house rat. Love it. My favorite Saturday morning lineup consisted of flipping […]
Santa is dead.
I am easily disappointed. I tend to get very excited for and attached to things or plans. When these things or plans change, I’m told my face and demeanor looks something akin to a child who’s just lost his puppy. Meredith, who most often gets to take the brunt of my disappointment, rarely has any […]
Firstborn son
I’m entirely freaked out by the sperm decision. The donor decision: to know or not to know. I’m also partially freaked out by sperm in general. I was caught once by a friend describing certain qualities of sperm, to which she replied: “Aw, Buddy, you haven’t come in contact with sperm in a long time.” […]
