Let's talk about sex, parent-style. I mean your parents having sex. And you having sex if you're a parent.

Don't cringe: Laugh instead. In Business Time, Megan Ault Regnerus takes on doing the wild thing after kids -- both as a child and as a mother. Her taboo-skewering story made both consenting adults in my household laugh so hard we wept.

First she invokes her own childhood:

"One of my brothers, City Boy, has a hilarious and disturbing memory from our childhood. The whole family was on a trip together, the three of us kids long since tucked into our polyester-sheeted hotel beds for the night. City Boy was having a hard time falling asleep, when he heard my mom trying to talk my dad into Business Time..."

If you don't know what Megan means by Business Time, then you are in for a musical treat a la Flight of the Conchords. Dig it: She embeds the video. Rating: NSFYKTBKB (Not Safe For Your Kitchen Table Before Kid Bedtime).

Megan is unmerciful with her parents but wickedly funny...as her own mother admits in the comments. But how could her mother not laugh, since this blogger wraps by lampooning herself?

At a turning point in her story, Megan invokes one of the most terrifying sounds two heavy-breathing parents can hear: A door. Closing.

“But. There are no windows open in the house, how could the wind have opened the door, and then shut it, Shawn? There’s no way that was the wind.”

Shawn, a soon-to-be high school science teacher who fully understands weather patterns and physics, covered his head with a pillow. “Oh my GOSH!!!”

“We just completely traumatized one of the boys,” I said. “I think you better go see who it was.”

“There is no way I am leaving this room,” he said...

It doesn't end well for Megan, but the reader definitely scores. Heh. And that is why Business Time makes Megan our BlogHer of the Week!
