As I drove to work, I heard a radio commercial that caught my attention. The announcer was asking if you were a female who took care of yourself. He asked -- are you a nonsmoker, did you exercise, do you take care of yourself. I was thinking yeah, yeah, yeah, I am what you are looking for. Mind you, I rarely get suckered in but this morning I was suckered in.
Then, the announcer says we are looking for single women. I'm thinking I'm one of these. He goes on -- single women who are healthy, non-smokers, blah, blah, blah. Next he says (here is the clincher) -- women in between the ages of 21 to 32 who would like to donate their eggs so couples can have an opportunity to have children.
When I heard this "age requirement," I caca'd in my pants. What -- I don't qualify because of one measly birthday? All of a sudden my huevos are not good enough to help a couple out.
Mind you, I have never really cared about my slowly, shriveling huevos until right that split second. That freakin radio commercial!
I immediately called a married friend and told her about my epiphany. She laughed at me because it's unlike me to think about my huevos. I guess I always thought they'd be there until I was ready.
