Apollo has been very lethargic and just laying on the couch lately. He stopped eating and therefore wasn't getting his medication for arthritis and dementia ("now where DID i put those dang car keys!??!"). He's an old guy and we were getting worried. He eventually stopped venturing upstairs altogether!
THAT'S WHEN WE SAW IT: POOPSOCK RETURNS! It's the prequel we wish would never happen!
It's been raining off the hook, so poop scopping kind of fell by the way side....a perfect opportunity for recycling snacks (thinks Apollo in his cunning lazy lab way)!
Anyway, there's nothing like a sock (or two, or three) to help clean out the digestive pipes!
Our experts have testified to THREE (read it!) yes, THREE POOP SOCKS currently residing in the yard. No worries, they have been relocated to somewhere they can do no more harm.
Two have been identified. So please look at the line up and see if you recognize and of the socks on the right as the missing 3rd poopsock!
Because I can't believe how amazing this song is and I just have to share it! It so captures my tiny love, it scares me.
Hmmm, am I just paranoid or...does he look hungry?
Why on earth would I write about this? For one thing, it happened so long ago. It was like at least 2 or 3 months ago, so why bring up the horrible past and drag poor apollo through the mud?
Well, I'm sorry but Poop Sock is worthy of trotting out yet again.
What is Poop Sock?
Imagine, if you will, that you have a doggie who for some odd reason has taken to recycling his food after it has exited his body. Not SO strange as many doggies become shit-eaters for no apparent reason...
Imagine, if you will, a baby who leaves her little socks laying around in all sorts of disarray.
Imagine, if you will the mommas going out at various times to pick up dog poop in the yard.
Imagine there are times one is outside and hasn't yet gotten to picking up the poop...
Hmmm, that looks suspiciously like a sock, no wait, a piece of poop, no wait very sock-like poop...oh TOO BAD I AM UNABLE TO PICK UP POOP RIGHT NOW!
Imagine later when you describe oddity Poop Sock to spousie and she says she saw it too, but SOMEWHERE ELSE IN THE YARD!
Imagine when you go to pick up the evil Poop Sock someone (ok, Apollo) runs and dines on it before you even get a chance!!
AND THAT IS THE EVIL TALE OF THE RETURNING POOP SOCK
Disclaimer: I am an AVID advocate of recycling, but this simply goes TOO FAR. STOP eating the Poop Sock while you still can!
Ok, actually the Poop Sock finally got captured after several passes through. I know. DISGUSTING. HORRIBLE. WHY??WHY?? and most importantly, WHY ARE YOU WRITING ABOUT THIS????
Why not dildos or leather or lace or clubbing (not clubbing baby seals) or poetry or whimsy or gentle breezes, why oh why for g-dsakes the POOP SOCK?!?!?!
Ah, glad to finally get that off my chest.
it's VERY stinky around these parts...yet oh so sad in so many ways.
