the morning after

i was going to write about how i was feeling inspired about valentine's day and love.  (instead, this post is going to be about sex, kinda.)

then my wallet was stolen.  luckily, it was found in a men's restroom with only the cash gone.  i still feel violated because someone took it.  this was one reason why i was stressed out yesterday.

then there was all the snow and grossness yesterday.  that was the second reason why i was stressed out yesterday.

i balled up into a little ball of stress.  good thing i have good people around me.

we had a long discussion about sex last night (ha. for work!)  it was great. (the discussion, not the sex.  it was just a discussion.) we asked people, "what did your parents tell you about sex?"  i was amazed at people's responses - that there were so many people whose parents said NOTHING.  not even "don't have sex."  just nothing. 

i have no idea how i'm going to broach this topic with tae.  and, speaking of which, are there any "where do babies come from?" books with asian americans in it?  or do only white parents have sex and make babies buy books about procreation for their kids? (well, that, and do people have sex other than for baby-making?)

You should still report that your wallet was stolen you know. Especially if it had any of your personal information in it. That whole identity theft thing, you know. My husband had his identity stolen and someone used his name to open a credit card and spent somewhere along $5K at an instrument store, so now I'm all paranoid. So sorry that happened to you and ruined your mood.

And where do babies come from? Daddy and mommy have two halves of a seed. When the seed comes together, mommy keeps the seed safe in her tummy. Mommy grows the seed in there and out comes the baby! At least, that's what I told my daughter when she was 3. I doubt she remembers anything other than babies come from mommy's tummy.
