Cougars & MILFs & Motrin, Oh My

I'm back, or back-ish with a second son, Sebastian in tow. All appears well. I'm pleased to note that most things are more or less working and my clumsy planning for the Inevitable worked out pretty well. So far so good.

I've done precious little catching up, but I did spot this little piece in New York Magazine's requisite sex issue (I don't know why it seems to be a requirement of Gotham's weekly magazines, but there it is) about the new trend of sexed-up mothers. I have many opinions, but the only one I am capable of expressing right now is that the first days after giving birth are perhaps the days in which I destined to be the least sexy I have ever ever ever been. I recall this vaguely, hazily from the last delivery but this morning, the article does two things to my addled mind: it makes me laugh at these media phenomena and wonder why I'm not able to get myself together. (Ad folks, out there, take note, now is the time women are vulnerable and if they can get out of the house, might BUY SOMETHING to make themselves feel better, if not sexy.)

Cheers, all. Everything is, really, very very good.
