Happy Lupercalia Day

Time to get your toga on and get out there.

Feb 15th is an Ancient Greek holiday called Lupercalia.  I learned about this holiday from this blogger. You never know when some men will show up to whip that infertility out of you.  Wikipedia says (so it must be true), "Girls and young women would line up on their route to receive lashes from these whips. This was supposed to ensure fertility, prevent sterility in women and ease the pains of childbirth."  You never know when some men will show up to whip that infertility out of you.  


Between Valentine's Day and Lupercalia Day all of us infertiles should be in good shape.

Maybe I will sing: 
Lupercalifragilisticexpialidocious 
Even though the sound of it is something quite atrocious, 
If you say it loud enough you'll always sound precocious, 
Lupercalifragilisticexpialidocious!


Thank goodness my neighbors don't know about this option for me or else they just might show up at my house with a whip in hand.  


Uh oh, I think the doorbell just rang.
