Curiosity killed the....Hysteria

It has become a reality and scares the living daylights out of me, in addition to my fear of spiders; Charlotte is going to school! Not until September 2013, but ther forms have arrived, tours of the lcoal schools have been booked and the politics and hissy fits have begun - and that's just me.  I swore I wouldn't turn into an obsessive Mum but our nearest school has a bit of a rubbish reputation and I don't work five days a week for my only child to have a crappy education. So, I will try hard and do whatever it takes to get Charlotte into a decent school. There is actually nothing I can do. I have no idea how we have avoided bankruptcy with the cost of nursery so private school is out of the question. Maybe the good schools need a token ginger kid. All I can do is hope or win the lottery. I must buy a ticket!

Education and the growing knowledge of children fascinates me. I recently repeated a story to Ben in front of Charlotte about little "Billy". Billy's parents were watching a Piers Morgan interview with Roger Moore. Roger was asked if he slept with his leading ladies. He answered that he loved the blow jobs!  Billy's Mum and Dad won't tell him what a blow job is which is the right thing to do. At nine he is too young but he is asking Grandma, the neighbours and anyone that will listen to tell him. I just hope that Charlotte does not go to nursery with the same question. 

I recently learned a new thing myself.  The definition of the word Hysteria.  It is the name of a medical condition from the 19th Century. This "illness" affected many women. These days it would called PMT or sexual frustration.  The Doctors would cure the ladies by giving them a hand job until orgasm was achieved.  Wow, I would have been a willing patient to Dr Tappin who was my yummy GP when I was in my twenties.  Well, in the eighteen hundreds the Doctors did not get aroused by this. In fact, they got bored and developed tennis elbow, until the invention of the first Vibrator. To think that dildos were an electoral feather duster that  had gone wrong. I look forward to watching the film, Hysteria with the Inventor of the first sexual toy played by the very lovely and dapper, Rupert Everett. Ladies, it's one to watch.
