Joy Kill

Having sex to make a baby when you're my age is no longer considered fun.  We were told by our doctor to try to do it several times over the course of a week or so.  I naively thought, "WOW.  Sex all the time!  AWESOME."  Alas, not so.

Sex some of the time = AWESOME

Spontaneous sex = AWESOME

Sex some of the time spontaneously = CRAZY AWESOME

Sex on cue for a week = Imagine being on the It's a Small World boat ride at Disneyworld.  The first time is fabulous, neat-o, fun, and entertaining.  The seventh time, however...you want to kill yourself and everyone on the boat with you (ie: your husband.)  

My poor sperm factory, er, I mean HUSBAND.  I love him so.  But sex when you're trying to conceive makes me murderous, and unbelievably sore.
