The other day I had this impulse to look at W’s sperm donor’s profile. Part of it is that W is getting older and as he becomes himself I marvel at the discovery and am naturally curious about that age old nature vs nurture debate. I know that much of who W is has nothing [...]

What if my son ends up hating me because he was conceived through DI? What if all we’ve gone through to have him and to bring us so much happiness ends up bringing him enormous pain? There are many, many, many public comments floating around about Single Mothers and most of them are not exactly [...]

Can you believe that I forgot to call the sperm bank yesterday? I even had a post-it note on the frame of my imac and I didn’t notice it until 5 minutes ago. Doh! Well as a side note: yesterday was a bit crap. As is the norm here, sadly, the day after a great [...]

first crush

Today I am going to attempt (in between GM’s nap schedule) to order some man in a can. I have narrowed down my selection to two young donors and I am hoping that someone at the bank has some inside, wink, wink, input to help break the tie. To be honest with you guys I [...]

It is with great excitement and ridiculous enthusiasm that I announce that I have found lucky donor #4. After days of searching banks all over the world (no joke) I found my ideal candidate sitting in a bank one state over. To my shock the people at the bank could actually tell me stuff about [...]

When it comes to men I have eras of being extremely picky and times when I was pretty foolish. I will confess that I have never been in adult love. I have been infatuated, obsessed, turned on, & hopeful – but never the full on deal. I’ve never been swept off my feet. A few [...]
