Yesterday I was able to order my trigger shot and my sperm in less than an hour. That was an improvement over last month!
Every time I order sperm I feel like Kenny Rogers on the album cover of “The Gambler,” cards in hand, fancy lady glancing over my shoulder. 
Do I order one vial or two? Should I rush the delivery, or bet that I’ll ovulate when I always do? Who’s on the other side of my table? A big healthy egg with some stranger’s sperm glancing over her shoulder in a tuxedo? Or is it a clock in an evening gown? Who is the guy who “gave” me the sperm anyway?
I went with Lefty — hey! he’d fit right into my version of the Kenny Rogers album cover with that name– for this and next month, despite my lovely commenters’ advice. I had yet to receive the long profile when I made the order. I got the long profile later in the day. I don’t know if we’ll go with him at all. For me it is mostly because he’s only 18. I feel vaguely like a child m0lester, even though I’ll never even see the guy, most likely. I’m two years younger than his own mother! A wasn’t impressed with his profile either. Let’s hope Lefty steps up this or next month and I won’t have to gamble again. I don’t actually know when to walk away or know when to run. I also tend to count my money while I’m sitting at the table. Perhaps I should ride the rails more often?

Yeah, as a teacher, I totally get why an 18-year-old donor makes you feel like a child molester, even though he’s a legal adult so it shouldn’t. I’m sorry you weren’t thrilled with the profile either.
Didn’t the straw test say it’d be within the first 3 or 4 tries?

Ugh. I think three, actually. It was half-right about Flipper’s sex, so perhaps it will be right about this. But I’m not going to count my money just yet.

Good luck with this one!
