Suburban Sex and The City

Mr. Big, how have I forsaken you all these years?

 

Carrie, Miranda, Samantha and Charlotte, you divine sluts, my days and nights have been consumed with your sexual escapades in search of Mr. Right (or Mr. Right Now).

 

Laundry, cleaning, feeding and interacting with my family have come to a screeching halt so I can steal away to watch another episode from the complete seasons on disc.

 

Hubby will even slide into bed with me to catch an episode proclaiming he’s always in the mood for “soft porn.”

 

For years girlfriends told me I needed to upgrade my cable for this highly entertaining HBO show. But I was content with my basic cable and getting my kicks from the likes of Desperate Housewives.

 

Oh, so not the same.

 

So now that I’ve upgraded my membership at Blockbuster so I can feed my Sex and The City habit in daily two-DVD season episodes rotation, it makes me wonder…

 

Does this make me a Sex addict?  

 

               

 

Look how our mommy’s group has grown.

 

First, it was anything to get me out of the house with adult interaction and break the Groundhog Day newborn routine.

 

Then it was about our developing kids and stimulating their emerging personalities, while getting in a little social time for mommy too.

 

It was always about commiseration, validation and appreciation for all that we do for our families.

 

But as our broods and kids grew, our group’s dynamic changed. People branched off, new friends joined, the group swelled with new babies then diminished with kids heading off the school. As schedules booked up and houses emptied of kids, new hobbies emerged and new ways of staying connected.

 

It started with Girls Night Out. Then we let the guys join us with couple’s get-togethers. There’s even branch offs like running groups, tennis pairings, group camping, Culinary Queens (bring a dish and a recipe and plenty of wine) and Luna Lounge nights.

 

We have gone from unshowered, unshaved, uninitiated sleepless zombie mommas craving interaction that didn’t involve rice cereal, to experienced, enlightened and engaging sexy mommas who found - no made - the time to strike balance between family and individuality.

 

And we are celebrating this near decade of growth by doing some shopping, hitting a hot restaurant, ordering a few Cosmopolitans and then heading off arm in arm to the opening night of the Sex and The City movie.

 

Because you don’t have to be single in the big city to be fabulous. You’ve just gotta make time for it.

I am so happy to know someone else shares my love of STC. I own all six seasons and I've recently started rewatching them to gear up for the movie, which I am very excited for.

And can I say, I am terribly jealous of you. I cannot believe your husband will watch them with you! My totally makes snide remarks and I have to "shush" the heck out of him.

Cute post. We like Luna Lounge, too. It's in our neighborhood, but we hardly leave the house because my kids are still so small. :-(

I am so glad someone else is a fan of sex and the city I love that series I have all the dvd sets and the books . I watched them from the begining till the end and even got my boyfriend now husband to watch them and he likes it he thinks their funny! Anyway I have been waiting for a long time for this movie I watched  them on Opra last week including Mr BIG on the show it made me more excited to go see the movie me and four other of my girlfriends are going out on the town that night after we see the movie together and a reason to go shopping before hand to look faboulous and enjoy some dancing and drinks at the Park Ultra Lounge downtown. I am sure this movie will be a sell out and be packed at a lot to most theaters have fun!

I can't wait to see the movie and their outfits!  I'm a huge fan of the "fab 4".

As soon as I saw the movie preview, I knew I had to get up to speed.

In fact, I had to go pick up my daughter sick from school today and I'm getting ready to set her up with a movie then set myself up with episodes 7-13, Season 2. I figured I'd take a sick day with her...

Kel,

My name is barb, and i, also, am a Sex addict. ;)

I just saw that poll, and i cannot believe that 25% have not seen SATC. They don't know what they are missing out on. Poor chicks. It's like when you find out a good friend has never had an O. They don't know what they are missing out on—until they finally experience it for themselves (then you don't hear from them for months). :) Welcome to the club! And try to remember to bathe, eat and feed your kids in between episodes.
