The Bookish Girl

Intelligent Design?!

i told my sister that i was super hungry yesterday and couldn’t figure out why.

she said, “maybe you’re pregnant again.”

i laughed for about 15 minutes.

pregnancy 101 – to get pregnant you must have sex.  to have sex you must have energy.  to have energy you must not have a one year old who hates to sleep.  to not have a one year old who hates to sleep you must not have sex.

see the problem?!  someone really fucked up on that design.

intelligent design my ass.

    I’m with you on the child-hating-sleep-induced problems. For your sake I hope they stop soon!!!

    This made me laugh so much (not nice of me, I know). Most of my friends with children pretty much say the same thing. The only thing that changes is the age of the offspring and the number.

    I find that there are always a few days near the changes of the seasons where my body alters how it treats food. I either am just hungrier or I start wanting more of certain types of foods (salty or more carbs, etc.).

    If only I didn’t understand what you’re talking about. I had to go to the doctor last week and was asked if I might be pregnant – I got a good laugh out of that one, too!

    Being 45 with a six-month-old and three other kids helps keep pregnancy at bay, too.

    I laughed SO LOUD reading this.

    Living through that lo’ those many years ago, I never knew how much I would E-N-J-O-Y the empty-nesting years.

    Amen! That’s the story of my summer. Year two is better. I don’t remember if you’re b/fing but that took a lot out of me. Everything got better when B weaned. Sad but true.

    Are you spying on me? You just described my life to a tee, except the babe is 9 months not 1 year.

    Chiming in late — but you know, it sounds pretty intelligent to me ;-) No time for sex, bad time for baby. . . ?
