My blog looks like someone melted the cover of Twilight or, like, took a Polaroid of the cover and then smeared the photo before it fully developed.
Wait. I can do this.
This blog design looks like sex between Jared Leto and Courtney Love, directed by Tim Burton, except Tim Burton was drunk that day and had the flu.
So ... I was going to tell you about the midwife at the OB/Gyn's office, and how she is crunchy in an upper-crust way - you know, wholesome with a gold watch.
And I was going to tell you about how, the year after I got married, I said something to her about maybe trying in the next year or so to produce a child.
She said very plainly, "OK, well, the way to tell if you're ovulating is to get a little discharge on your fingers and then pull your fingers apart. If it's tacky, you're not ovulating. If it sticks together in a long string, kind of like the white part of an egg yolk, you're ripe."
So, right after I vomited, I thanked her, and then she raised her eyebrows and half-smiled and said, "It's fun trying!" I kind of wish she'd had one of those spinning bow ties and a handlebar mustache, and then she could have tapped out of the exam room, pumping her cane up and down.
Anyway, I was trying to find a way to turn that into a story or a picture or something, but the furthest I got was this:
Yeah. Sorry about that.
Mostly, I just have some ho-hum crumbs of blog post ideas. Let's call it a theme, shall we? Cupcake crumbs, or something. I suck dick at transitions sometimes.
Speaking of dick ... for many years, I had heard that men name their penises. I accepted this as a universal truth.
My ideas of truth and gender stereotypes were shattered when I learned that PHubby does not have a name for his penis.
I think, in celebration of our upcoming anniversary, I should get to name it. We've started a list, although - is it just me? - some of them would be awesome band names.
Anyway, let me know what you think:
Dr. Wankenstein
The Hard Bargain
(Dr. Wankenstein and the Hard Bargain)
Snowball
The Nutty Professor (he's a grower)
Vanilla Thunderstick
The Witch's Dorothy
Little Roussimoff (Google is your friend)
PHubby's Magic Wand (Schtoopefy!)
Mr. Delicious
Larry (that's his brother Daryl and his other brother Daryl - they're nuts.)
Dr. Schmekel and Mr. Hide (he gets cold sometimes)
So, I type out the list, and then PHubby goes, "Are you just going to put this up as a poll?"
And then, we both start giggling like idiots because ... pole.

You know, I thought they all just called him 'Johnson'
ReplyDeleteAlso, post crumbs. Right there with you.
Discharge = egg yolk = ovulating?! Where do they get this stuff - it's like some kind of medical cooking class. Or something else that's totally wrong.
ReplyDeleteI once worked with a nurse that called all penis' Mr Hoo Hoo, you know,because that's the correct medical term for them...lol!!
ReplyDeleteWhat kind of header do you want for your blog? I maybe could help.
Speaking of children, check out my blog. I keep getting mailings from a fertility clinic. I doubt I'll get them anymore..lol !!
oh yes, the fun "cervical mucus" test. ew.
ReplyDeleteI really like larry. Well, the daryl reference. Although I guess that would only really apply if dh had a vasectomy or swimmer problems since the daryls seemed a bit, uhm... slow.
I had a name for one guy's. Pinky. Yes, it was meant to be offensive.
I always thought since genitalia comes in sets, they should have his and hers nicknames.
ReplyDeleteHe's Pokey and you can be Gumby.
Sonny and Doesn't Share.(unless you're swingers)
The Green Hornet and Katie-o
"Throbbing Gristle" is a real and fairly sucessful band
ReplyDeleteI love the new header. And by love, I mean am somewhat creeped out by, while still being impressed, as that's sadly far beyond my own photo editing skills.
ReplyDeleteI used to 'know' someone who named his wiener "Connie Chung"
ReplyDeletePlease add that to your list of considerations.
Go ahead, just stick your fingers up there and pull some stuff out. Then get it on, like what exactly is more romantic than that?
ReplyDeleteI'm so so so into the first name...Dr. Wankenstein and the Hard Bargain. That's just amazing to me.
I don't think my hub has a name for his penis. Sads.
The Witch's Dorothy? What?
ReplyDeleteI vote for that since I have no fucking clue what it means.
I heard about that egg yolk thing. I've never looked at eggs the same way again.
ReplyDeleteLARRY DARYL AND DARYL!!
ReplyDeleteOh, girl. I just made meringue in my pants over you.
Mine was given the name Mr.Ed a long (haha) time ago.
ReplyDeleteSomething about a horse or something.
Vanilla Thunderstick. Wow. Just...wow. That? Is about the most perfect penis/band name ever in the history of the universe.
ReplyDeleteOh, just wait. You will know more about your vagina than you ever wanted to. It's like the cousin who won't stop talking.
ReplyDeleteYeah. Vanilla Thunderstick. If he doesn't use it, I will. (That's what she double-entendred cryptically.)
ReplyDeleteI missed a couple of your posts and I came back on the one about naming your hub's package. For some reason I'd prefer reading more about your vaginal discharge.
ReplyDeleteMine has no name, although my favourite V8 Supercar Driver of all time is "Dick Johnson", so it seems like an appropriate tribute that it be named after him.
ReplyDeleteOver easy now has new meaning to me, too.
ReplyDeleteAt first I was all *gag* she's talking about discharge and even though it's funny *gag*.
ReplyDeleteBut then you got to the penis names and I laughed until I brought my boss running from the next room and she was all, "What?! What?! What's so funny?! Tell me!" And I was all, "GASP HeeHeeHeeHee Vanilla Thunderstick HeeHeeHeeHee!" And she was like, "That's it. I'm signing you up for pastoral counseling.
So, THANKS.
P.S. - The header (<~~Penis name?) with the black eyeholes and wide gaping mouth is making me so hot right now.
She didn't actually use the word "ripe," did she? Is that the term they taught her in medical school or was she just putting her own quirky spin on doctoring? What a weirdo.
ReplyDeleteVlad the Impaler.
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome.
I like "The Hard Bargain." Sounds like a book title. In public, you could be all, "PHubby, let's pull out The Hard Bargain tonight." Oh yeah.
ReplyDeleteThis is why I'm single, p.s.
Okay, this is weird telling people this, but my gf calls mine Golliath.
ReplyDeleteI call it myself, with the emphasis on self. Me myself and I
i call chuck's peep, mr peepers because i think it's funny. also, some times i make laser gun noises with it. true story.
ReplyDeleteDamnit I was all locked and loaded with the funny discharge and then I read mylittlebecky's comment. And now all I can say is pew. PEW PEW pew pew pew PEWWW! P-p-p-p-PEW!
ReplyDeleteNow my kitten is confused. No literally not my kitten. That wasn't a vagina reference at all. Though I guess she's confused, too.
Christ, what the hell? Why are my comments over here so effing WEIRD!
Which reminds me. The new header? Yeah. Wow.
I remember. Name his schlong Pontouf. Boy THAT was worth coming back for, eh?
ReplyDeleteYour blog design is fine. Mine is self designed, too, and it is the color of baby shit. Wanna trade?
ReplyDeleteLOVE your tagline, BTW. :)
PS. Steam Me Up, Kid sent me.
I think this post may have made me ovulate. And thanks to this post, I now know how to check. So helpful, you are!
ReplyDeleteSo checkin' the 'charge is what I have to look forward to then in trying to churn out the sproglettes? Joy.
ReplyDeleteAs for a penis name, I'm putting forward The Poacher - in staying with the 'cooking the eggs' vein (heh heh, vein).
You know, that discharge trick will come in handy at parties.
ReplyDeleteRegarding penis name: I'm trying to get my wife to call mine The Kraken. Mainly because I really want her to yell out, at the right foreplay moment, "RELEASE THE KRAKEN!!!"
It's not catching on.
You know the more I look at that header, the more it reminds me of Little Orphan Annie. That is if Annie was a zombie doing fetish porn. =] *whistles, its a hard knock life*
ReplyDeleteI'm going for Vanilla Thunderstick, only because my boyfriend's is The Thundercock.
ReplyDeleteI also like Dr Wankenstein.
Sorry. I couldn't read the post because I'm trying to find my sprinkles that you always promise.....
ReplyDeleteOMG! TEARS streaming down my face, my co-workers are seriously concerned that I am bipolar now. Steamy sent me too.
ReplyDeleteI was just the WWofW in Wizard of Oz so I TOTALLY get and vote for "The Witches Dorothy" in fact, I may steal it too b/c <> my husband's is also the member with no name.
Vanilla Thunderstick is fabulous but I have a friend who was in a band called Alabama Thunderpussy and they just sound like they go together too well.
@Pirate: "release the Krakken" gets thumbs up from me.
Larry Darryl and Darryl is also genius because you could work a little "Hello, Larry" in there as well.
And yeah, the header ("header"?) is a little Coraline looking.
Hilarious as usual. I cannot contribute to the naming of Phubby's Wonder Rod
ReplyDeleteThanks for the ovulation knowledge ~ that piece of info would have been useful I don't know ... maybe 22 weeks ago =)
Ah yes, egg yolk, cervical mucus. There is actually a book - Taking Charge of Your Fertility that suggests you USE egg whites in place of cervical mucus if you don't have enough. You read that right. I guess you'd get it up there with what? A funnel while you are standing on your head? You'd need help from your significant other and then you can pretty much forget about getting pregnant anyway because really he's not going to boink you after that.
ReplyDeleteI like Vanilla Thunderstick. Or maybe Mr. Peebody. OR...The Colonel!!! (you know, cuz of his little helmet? oh, nevermind)
ReplyDeleteDr. Schmekel and Mr. Hide (he gets cold sometimes)
ReplyDeletefantastic!!!
