Why you should DO IT

This might not be news to you, but 2020 is not the sexiest year in history. By far. Personally, I haven’t been too randy largely because I’m chunky, emotionally drained, and I have not had any kind of regular waxing of my lady bits. (Is it just me that doesn’t want to have perished from a terrible virus because I needed to pay a stranger to pull hair from my labia during a global pandemic?)

Also, because I’m not regularly leaving my house for my job, my days congeal into a soup of mornings and evenings and time passes at a ridiculously quick rate. Days turn in to a few days and before I know it, it’s been a week since I’ve done anything in our bed with my husband. And that’s not okay.

I usually write about self improvement and productivity, so why should I care to write about my sex life? Well, it turns out, sex is significantly better for your health than most people think. And, interestingly, it can make you more productive, too. But, like any self improvement goal, you need to actually do it to make it work. And for me, these days, that means scheduling sex.

Is that weird? Maybe. But I’m trying to be the best human that I can be and that means doing all the things.
