My quest to become pregnant by the end of the year!

I just celebrated my 40th birthday (9 days ago) and I think I've accomplished everything in my life except motherhood. So I've decided to get injected by a doctor at a fertility clinic to become pregnant.
I discussed it with my closest family member and with my hairdresser and so far everyone is in agreement.
Here is my problem: I suffer from the curse of Halle Berry! I am too beautiful, too intelligent and I intimidate man unbeknownst to me.
My dream has always been to grow up to have a traditional family but by now I have completely given up!
I'm having artificial insemination and I have thought about it for many years and It took forever to decide with race I should choose and I decided on Caucasian. Why is that a factor? Well, I'm Biracial and I decided I don't want my kids to go through all the racism I witness everyday and therefore since I have choice I'll make them as light as possible so they don't have to be teased in the private probably all white school I will send them.
Also they won't have to struggle with too much nappy hair issues and please I have nothing against Blacks I am black. So I have to pick a date for the appointment. Let me look at my calendar. I selected the last week of July. So far I have taken my daily dose of Folic acid and try to eat right but I really need to exercise. If all goes right, I should be able to get injected sometime between August and September and get pregnant by the end of the year. This is very costly and a part of me still says why can't you just find someone and have sex and get pregnant like everyone else. Well, I can't I have resigned from relationships and man in general and I'd rather get injected artificially then to sleep with another man in my life.
