Hitting the floor, not the fan



That would be shit.

This is going to be a shit-filled post, so click off if you can't take the shit.

It rained in Los Angeles today -- actually, it didn't just rain. It poured. Los Angeles doesn't take to rain very well, and it was a shitstorm.

See where this is going?

When the boys and I opened the front door into our living room, we nearly stepped into a huge pool of dog shit. Dog diarrhea. There was some sympathetic gagging, but I managed to clean it up and prevent my poor, frail sons from doing the job themselves.

Sophie's bus pulled up just as I put the mop down, so I walked outside to help her off and escort her inside. On the way back, I stepped into some dog shit on the sidewalk and muttered Shit under my breath.

The rain was coming down in buckets, but I managed to get Sophie onto the porch and just as I walked through with her, she went down in a huge shi-- seizure.

I swooped her up and literally threw her seizing body over the side of the couch and yelled Shit!


You really can't make this shit up.

  2. Oh shit.
    When it shits, it shit-pours.
    That's another bad design flaw- shit. Couldn't we just have been designed to live on the ether, on sunlight and farted moonbeams?
    No. To be alive is to shit.
    To be a mother is to clean it up.
    I love you.

  13. Seriously....I know these days. I came home from work on Monday and went in to the bathroom and there was a turd on the floor. No not dog...our dog leaves elephant piles. Where did the turd come from? Did it roll out of pants or diaper? Why did no one notice it? How long had the lonely little turd been waiting? You are right. You can't make this stuff up.
