I have had many blog-topic tidbits pop into my head lately - and I realized a lot of them seem to be related to Poop. I’ve decided it would be unhealthy to squish these thoughts back into the basement of my mind, so I am now subjecting you all to my poop thought in all of their glory. Just think of it as Bulleted Poop.
- We saw a bumper sticker the other night that said, “I’m speeding because I really have to poop.” It came complete with a graphic. Of poop. Steaming poop. MrZ is still laughing about it as we speak.
- One of the chores that have been neglected since having a baby is the Periodic Dog Poop Removal in the backyard. Let’s just say that our grass seems to be thriving under these conditions. Evidently that’s the secret: Let three dogs crap all over your yard all season and enjoy the lush grass that grows as a result. Of course, you can’t really enjoy the grass without stepping in the poop…maybe the idea is not that great.
- Sometimes, when you research information about training for marathons, you stumble upon phrases like Runner’s Trots and your outlook will never be the same again.
- Now that NikkiZ is eating more solid food than she is nursing, her diapers are toxic. I’ll leave it at that except to say that daycare is worth it when I am only changing less than a third of those diapers a week.
You’re never coming back here, are you?
This is the best poop post I’ve read all week!
i am sooooo coming back here!! THIS is the zoot i have been missing!!
This is typical dinner table conversation for us …it always revolves around fiber intake and poop. It’s sad …the people I work with even make their bowel habits known. I’ve become numb to it all …nothing bothers me anymore! LOVE your blog!
And entire post about poop. LOVE IT
I hate that my backyard is poop littered. Have dog, will step in poop. I never thought of that UNTIL we got a dog. I love to watch my kids hop around the poops.
I think if I had categories on my blog, most posts would be listed under “Poop”.

I totally laughed at this one. Poop is a gross (but funny) part of life. I will totally come back.
Computer hiccup. Sorry!
Honey, you’ve been writing about poop for ages now, and we still come back for more.
We’re twisted like that.
Hmmmph! This post is the shits! ; )
the trots huh? is that what they’re called? the closest i ever came during my long runs was the cramping, but luckily never any…well, let’s say release.
seriously, way to go on the training. and you know what i learned after training for my marathon, if you call yourself a runner, you’ll be a runner. i mean, i weighed 215lbs when i ran my marathon. not exactly the stereotypical runner, but dammit, i did it & so will you. if running a marathon doesn’t make you a runner then what does?
“it would be unhealthy to squish these thoughts back”
Hahaha…that phrase has poop written all over it!
Reminds me of “Triumph the Insult Comic Dog” that used to be on Conan Obrien’s show! He put out a CD called “Come Poop with Me”. Oh, BTW: I have U likned!
Now… where can I buy that bumper sticker?!!
Yeah, I’m coming back …. cause, see, I was worried that no one would EVER go to my site after tonight, when I wrote about how FREAKIN’ BAD my cat’s poop smells.
I’m totally coming back for more. I love talking shit!
It wasn’t the solids that killed me, it was the table food!! Good God, how something that can be that sweet and cuddly and then have that stench come out of it’s ass is COMPLETELY beyond me!!
I thought your blog was rather funny!! But, I am a mama of two boys so I am used to the grossness of it all now!!
Poop. Ever read Gene Weingarten in the Washington Post? Perfectly respectable comic writer. Ever read him in his online chats? He has a hilarious take on a hugely wide range of topics, but(?) so many of them end up somehow related to bathroom humor. Mostly poop. The man is a genius.
A tip about having three dogs and a yen for a poop-free yard. We did for years. The secret for us was fencing in the side yard separately and calling that the dog yard. Voila. Poop in one area, playtime (dogs and kids) in the other. Worth every penny the extra eight feet of fencing cost.
Damn. I really could have used that bumper sticker back when I was suffering from IBS. Oh lordy all the speeding tickets I got… ouch.
Yeah, that whole Runner’s Trots thing? Most unpleasant. Let’s just say a friend of a friend told me. Ahem.
I have the whole ‘neglecting to clean up dog poop since baby was born’ thing too. Its only been two weeks but I bet it’ll be another two before it gets thought about.
Where can I buy this bumper sticker?
We call the poo scooping in the backyard “POOP PATROL”. It makes it sound WAY cooler.
