I am invincible...I am strong...

As the mother in "Sixteen Candles" said, " She just got her monthly bill", I too, have to pay the piper. Once again I’m not pregnant. And five days from now I turn 35, the point when a pregnancy gets a little dicier. I am a barren woman. Hear me roar.

A billion thoughts keep crowding my head. I am going to be that crazy Lauren. The crazy cat lady. The get-off-my-lawn-damned-kids lady. The “why do we always have to visit crazy Aunt Lauren? Her house smells of cat poopy!” lady. “You kids be nice! WE visit because she doesn’t have anyone else” lady. I am the movie of the week: Her private pain, a very special Lifetime movie starring Yasmine Bleeth. Patty Duke or Meredith Baxter will play my mother.
