Poop

may refer to:
  • Stern, the rear or aft part of a ship or boat
    • Poop deck, a deck that constitutes the roof of a cabin built in the aft
    • To be pooped, in nautical parlance, means to have a wave come over the stern from abaft.
  • Feces, waste product from an animal's digestive tract expelled through the anus
    • Defecation, the act or process by which organisms eliminate feces
    • Pooper-scooper, used by dog owners to pick up their pet's fecal matter
I was crapped, shatted, dumped on by a bird this morning while Fiona and I were walking. Right on my bicep so it trickled down to my wrist and hand before I could stop it. "Shit" I shouted and then laughed at myself. Being a stone's throw from my building I tried to hurry Fiona along so we could find soup and some water to remove the feces from my arm. Funny how I was out trying to get Fiona to take a crap so I could pick it up in a baggy and place it in the trash can.. just to have a bird crap on me. In the hand that normally holds the baggy for the poop (the baggy had already been tossed with Fiona's goodness.)

What a way to start my early Saturday morning. After a shower I made some hot chocolate and have been blog hopping for the past 5 minutes. Gathering my thoughts and trying to propel myself to get dressed and get going. A little bit of work to do today and then a ride in the dirt this evening.


On a side note - the commute to work is getting steamier. Not hotter but steamier. Where there is less of a breeze and more of a stale mid-summer air that I have to gulp down in attempt to swallow it. The week prior I was wearing a tshirt and a pair of dickies shorts (or something close) and this week I had to return to wicking lycra and polyester. I'm trying to avoid showering once I get to work, so staying as dry as possible is needed.

So you used "soup and water" for the poop cleaning, eh? I think a potato soup with smoked Gouda and toasted caraway seeds would work great in this application. Just a little water though, because you want it to stick.

Yeah, it is getting hot! We don't have the humidity, but commuting in jeans is becoming uncomfortable on the way home. Spring was so easy...
