If there are any Jezzies interested I happen to have some man eggs I would be willing to donate. Normally I wouldn't donate them, but times are hard, and I trust you all to raise them well.

@whats_in_a_name: I'll only take 'em if I can cover them with cheese on a toasted bagel. Just saying.

I actually looked into this. Turns out if ANYONE in your immediate family takes antidepressants, you're ineligible - at least at the clinic I was looking at.

So as if having depression wasn't bad enough, now I'm sad too :(

Ha! My cubemate donates her eggs as often as they let her. It's a pretty decent amount of money, but I don't think it would be something I could do. I'm pretty sure I'd fail the psych evaluation, too.

@mfnher: There are so, so many reasons I can't donate my eggs. Fuck, I can't even donate blood. I'm pretty sure these genes are meant to die with me.

@mfnher: You can donate eggs? So many questions. How do they extract them? How long does it take? Does it hurt? I have to go look this up.

@Francie Nolan: It seems kind of miserable, actually. She gets super bloated and uncomfortable with all the injections she has to take. And she gets cysts. Not fun.

@Francie Nolan: @Perpetual Ingenue: She does it a couple times a year. She's done it about five or six times. She has kids of her own. She works with me in non-profit; I understand needing the money. She's decided one more time. Last time she got the check she paid off credit cards and bought her kids a wii.

In their defense, those guys were actually seahorses, and they were just a little confused about the way their reproduction works. Abstinence-only eduction hurts seahorses, too.

I want them to cancel this show stat and order nothing but new episodes of "The Real Housewives of Atlanta". I haven't found a more entertaining show in I don't know how long. I want to see Kim explore her country music "career" in depth.

But the question is, what will the Real Housewives of Worcester County be up to? Answer: maximizing a $10 giftcard at Kohl's by using it in conjunction with a 50% off bath towels sale.

Glamorous!

What's wrong with being nouveau riche? I always get a feeling that you're mocking them for this whenever you post about it. Meh.

@Gael: I'd say it's the attitude of most of these women that make the nouveau riche look a bit pathetic... Naturally there is nothing wrong with becoming wealthy, but the attitudes and behaviors of these women because of their new found money are kind of sad. And the behavior of their children is even more awful.
