marytyler.gif This is a must-read - really. Meredith O'Brien, author of "A Suburban Mom: Notes from the Asylum'' and a contributor to Mommy Track'd, has a piece today in the Huffington Post about the myth of successfully juggling kids, career, sex and health that I'm sure every parent can relate to.

My favorite part is Mommy Track'd founder Amy Keroes' intro, where she conjures the ultimate retro multitasking image, the 70's commercial for Enjoli perfume (see it at youtube) . That commercial, along with "That Girl'' and ''Mary Tyler Moore'' made a very strong case for a young girl to go after her career fantasies. OK, so it wasn't entirely realistic. But it sure was fun.
