so...

I got the job!!!!

not sure how really but I did! apparently I interviewed really well. all that remains now is to hand in my notice, which is kind of scary. I hate doing that. feel like I'm letting people down. anyhoo, all of your sexual health problems can now be tackled (ewxcuse the pun) by my good self!

Just watched that channel 4 programme about adopting. decided it is definately something we want to do somewhere in the future when we are older, wiser and more financially viable. anyone else ever thought about adopting?

indeed interesting thoughts...my gut reaction though is that by having my own kids, as well as the excitement of being pregnant is that you will have the opportunity to bring some people into the worlds who have experienced unconditional love and acceptance.

it is my firm belief (and I may be totally wrong, but I'm open to that!) that we repeat the experiences of our early years when we become parents.therefore, if we have experienced rejection, we will repeat that rejection.

unless, that is, someone steps in and shows us another way. this is one of the huge benefits of adoption.

however, I still believe that there are benefits of bringing a child into the world who has never known rejection.

I guess it might be selfish. but I cant help but think that if we can bring a boy into the world, and teach him by our actions that this is a good way to live and a good way to treat women, so maybe one less woman will be dicked on.

this is very narrow, and really I just want to be pregnant and I have also drunk a whole lot of wine (the two are in no way linked) but it may open up a discussion, you never know. Are my genes better than someone elses? is it fair to bring anouther ginger into the world?

Well done Jodes, Vik told me last night. You really are smrt.

Cat, interesting views. Not totally sure if I'm with you on them though. I think that its not just about being egocentric, but about creating something with your husband/ wife that is totally unique. And I think the mother child bond goes way beyond birth.

But also, adoption is a great idea. I want a little brown baby (to quote Mrs Slob, from Harry Enfield and chums)

Okay so I might be prejudiced being a mum but being pregnant is just the best thing! Having the wonder of that new life growng in you, kicking, becoming itself, is ab fab.

Congratulations on the job success, Jodie.
