LibiD'oh

Loss of libido is a common symptom of menopause. It's cute the way they say that, loss of libido, like...oh, it'll still be there, but there'll be less of it. Yeahno, I had a funeral for my libido a couple years ago. It's not diminished, it's moved on to a better place. Perhaps one day, I can resurrect it from the dead, but until then my interest in intimacy is up there with drinking spoiled milk, ain't gonna happen.


Homer is right, the human wang is a beautiful thing and I was a fangirl for years! I was a gold medalist in the sack, but now I just feel old, and old people having sex is gross. Now, don't get all up in arms about my last comment. I'm confused, moody and sleep deprived. If my sex drive ever cranks up again, and I take up (gag) dating, I might be forced to reconsider. Right now, I'm quite content to be single.

Daily life is a challenge for me, but with all the highs and lows, I'm eternally grateful for all that I am, all that I have and all that I've experienced. I was reminded that it's important to see the opportunity to express gratitude in times of frustration. Hmmmmm, maybe subconsciously my frustration is sexual, D'OH, just kidding. It's dead down there.

As I sit here thinking of something else clever to say, a smile forms on my <sigh> ever thinning lips. A memory of my great-grandma Opal and her eighty-something birthday, someone shouted...what did you wish for...and without missing a beat, and as serious as a Philadelphia lawyer she said...I wished it would get hard in the middle...pause a beat, and raucous laughter all around.

Have that crash cart on stand-by, there may be hope for my libido yet. ;-)
