Baby Haunt

I had to stand on the tube ride home today. As is often the case, I aimed my eyes at an ad in front of me so I wouldn't have to look at the great unwashed that fill the train carriages each morning and eve. This one particular ad had the photo of a baby in diapers. Not a particularly cute baby; a bit of fuzzy hair on its bald head, a friendly smile, rolls of baby fat. Probably a baby from Sheffield. He was advertising an upcoming showroom event for men wishing to donate sperm and get paid for it.

In Bethnal Green's Sainsbury's, I added this evening's dinner into my shopping basket (£16.01) and got in the queue. When I got close to the cashier my eyes wandered over the baby products section and stopped at a box of Rice Milk for babies. There was the same baby again, this time in a green T-shirt. Probably from the same photo shoot session.

I wish more people would adopt or foster.

I definitely want to adopt at some point, but I also have the strong physical desire to get pregnant. :O
