this morning, i happened across an article about how girls as young as 19 are turning to sperm banks to just, well....get it over with. good for you, Ladies. i hate to say this, but i haven't met a single -single- man in the NYC area who's truly ready for a committed relationship, let alone a little tyke running around the kitchen table when they're trying to get over a hangover....
guys, guys, guys.
one of my more seriously bad-ass girlfriends recently announced that she too was headed the route of cryogenically-kept spermies. after years of trying to find Mr. Right, she decided to circumvent all that harrowing business of 1st, 2nd, and all other uncomfortable follow-up dates, and made an appointment for something that should really take. can I be the godmother???
i clinked on a link in aforementioned article by a therapist who treats men only, and she pointed out that men have such a hard time opening up to others that, for the most part, they don't even understand issues they might have themselves. not just not understand them, but simply even speak about them in order to remotely assess or know what they are. can you imagine a woman not able to speak incessantly on any single one of her many emotional afflictions, at length, for days, months, even?? well, as it is, women let loose, on average 28,000 words a day - guys take the road less traveled, with almost half that at TWELVE thou. my heavens. it seems like a lot really can get lost in there.
sigh.
here's the pie that i ended up having for breakfast. never put off till tomorrow what you can do today.
