dog rises, bangs on door. dog goes out.
dog steps in poo.
dog bangs on opposite side of door. dog enters.
dog smudges poo from door, through kitchen and living room.

insist dog stays on floor.

i clean bum and place new diaper.

930am

  2. Oh... but there is a whole bunch of poo there... just a different kind.

    And for the record, I thought you were kidding...it literally was about shit and cereal. :) I should have known better.
