Hey all, have you missed me?
I’ve been awol for a while dealing with… well… that pesky little thing called life. Trying to create life really gets in the way of actually having one. But, I’m back now and I’m sure the blogosphere is spinning on its www axis in excitement.
And what better day to make my re-entry than the day of teddy bears, flowers and all that rubbish, a day to share the love? Valentine’s Day, or Singles Awareness Day, or “my husband only needs to love me one day of the year.” Well, I think I can beat any giant boxes of candy, oversized cuddly toys and bouquets of flowers so big you think you’re living outdoors.
I had a date with Sparkly Wand. It’s been three months since Sparkly Wand and I have been intimately acquainted and I almost resorted to starting another blog writing sad romantic ballads and suicide poetry. Wait… I said almost.
Last week we started the IVF process. IVF, short for I Vent Freely, is the G rated version of baby making. There is no need for physical intimacy at all, except with Sparkly Wand. So what better day than this, the day of puking hearts, to reunite with that magical rainbow shaft?
The first thing they make you do when you start IVF is go on the pill. I kid you not. You want a baby? Well then take the oral contraceptive. Er… contradiction anyone. Well, apparently it’s priming my body for a baby… now what the fuck have I been doing all these months? Has Sparkly Wand been leading me on? I feel betrayed.
Sparkly Wand can buy back my trust…. with a king sized box of chocolates.

Of course you were missed. Happy V Day.
You get to decide what V stands for.
I that case every day is V day
Wifey, you’re back! Of course we missed you!
Good luck with everything
And Happy Valentine’s Day!
Oh I missed you mostest of all wifey!!
Yay! Storkhunter’s back! Forget chocolates, you should insist that unromantic old wand takes you out for a dinner and a movie
It’s the least he could do considering all I’ve done for him. At least the chocolates had nutty centres… just like me
Hope the sparkly wand brings you something good soon
L xx
I’ll be catching up – I’ve been on and off! Really need to get that internet connection set up…
YES, Jill, shame on you for not wasting all your time like the rest of us. SHAME.
*thoroughly shamed* Soon! SOON! I’ll spend all my time in life on WP again soon!
Oh, sparkly wand, how I love your sparkle and the way you make my va-jay-jay light up with awesomeness. Okay, so I flunked poetry. I was going to add in a whole stanza with stirrups and speculums. Oh, well.
