What kind of sex scene do you write?

I've just spent almost two hours reading the blogs of romance authors.
Sigh.
Some amusing, some hopeful, some somewhat depressing.
Oh well.
I'm starving, as it's past dinnertime, but weirdly enough I've been starving all week. I've just been super-hungry lately, all the time. And yet, I'm still five pounds under my figure from early December. Probably due to work-- I eat at weird and random times at work and have become better at just ignoring being hungry-- I drink water or juice or soda instead of munching, because there's often nothing to munch, and I'm trying to get into that habit at home. When I'm hungry, I take a big drink of water, and if I'm still hungry after that, then I go eat something. Usually an hour has past because my attention span is so funky.
As of now, i'm totally starving and yet, am procrastinating. Eventually I'll be too weak with hunger to make food. A couple weeks of that and I'll be... dead. OK, maybe I won't continue that approach.
And no, still haven't finished Ch. 5. Need to, tonight.
Won't take long if I just buckle down and do it. (I must say, reading the blogs of all those writers, many of whom are published, made me feel good-- in a day when I get to just write, I write way more than them. I am a fast writer. I just need to... be a focused writer.)
Yeah, I could be a published novelist. I probably will be. But will I earn a living at it? Ahhh, another question entirely.
The point is moot unless I finish Ch. 5 tonight, however. (Well. I could probably finish it tomorrow morning. But definitely before I leave for work at 11:30.)
