Are we there yet?

Not Funny- Updated

 Couldn’t wait to take the test.  It was negative.  Don’t get me wrong here folks.  I want nothing more in this world than to have a baby.  However, I’m on a weight loss drug.  I can only imagine what kind of damage that would do.  Further, my amazing uterus comes with its own host of complications.  So, I’m just sighing…not of relief or sorrow, but just because.

See you tomorrow with class #6’s review.

 It just dawned on me that my period is now two days late.  I’m chalking it up to rapid weight loss.  However, if it does not show up tomorrow, I’ll be testing.  I should be excited or nervous, but rather I’m just plain irritated.  I swear though if anybody even utters anything to the effect of, “You just needed to relax,” “See, once you started adopting it did the trick,” or anything like that I’ll loose my marbles.  What do I want the test to say, you ask.  No clue.  All of this is just pushed back to the back dusty corner of my mind with the rest of the infertility boxes of baggage. 

So, today I will focus on scrubbing my house until it is nearly spotless, rechecking my homework for tomorrow’s class, and smiling wildly about my ten pound weight loss.  Man, life is just so messy.  For the record, I’m not hoping for a positive.  I’m much more realistic now than that. 

Back to scrubbing now…

Are you kidding me!?!

Ok, this is a bit embarassing because my family reads this blog, but anyway.  I’m too irritated to not write it.  There has been a ban placed on buying sex toys in the state of Alabama.  Are they serious?  Why?  This is what our paper says:

“The panel of three federal judges said states traditionally have regulated commercial activity they deem harmful to the public. They also pointed out Alabamians are free under the law to own and use sex toys such as vibrators - they just can’t buy the devices in the state. “  The Huntville Times

You can find the full article here.  Now, I ask you how the hell does a vibrator pose any threat to the public?  Just curious.  Next thing you know, they will be dictating what sexual positions they allow in the bedroom.  After all, you could injure yourself!  So, I guess Alabamians will have to start bootlegging their vibrators!  I seriously live in the strangest state.
