yeeeeeesh.

So that's what he was trying to tell you! Oh my is right.

Yummm, steamin' fresh Twice-Again-Corn like granny used to make :9

Not a new poop story, but a Christmas Poop Story.

and BTW.. didn't your nose help you decipher the "indecipherable gibberish"?.

I have the BEST poop story!

According to the Valera household legend, one day I was standing at my crib minding my own business playing and singing. (Singing whatever tune 1 1/2 year olds tend to sing.)

Anyway, my dad walked by and noticed I was playing with what looked to be marbles. And he thought, "Hold on! Where did she get marbles --and wait a minute, why are they BROWN!?"

He sniffed one, gagged and of course realized they were little poop balls I was playing with. This was the 70s and diapers weren't the force fields they are today.

The kicker was, when he started to take my "marbles" away all freaked out, I got upset and popped one in my mouth....

Yes ladies and gentlemen, the baby me ate my own shit.

Thank you and good night!

oh gross. i would have thrown up on the spot.

chocolate with corn . . . my god that made me laugh out loud.

a similar thing happened once when i was watching my sister . . except she went the fingerpainting-on-the-walls route.

Boulder is beautiful.. quite the college/granola community though, so it might not be a good choice for someone who a) isn't in college or b) is opposed to wearing socks with with her birkenstocks. Boulder has some of the best hiking and bike trails I've been to, and please consider the fact that I've lived and played in almost all sections of the Rocky Mountains when weighing this commendation.
Louisville is excellent, low crime, though people are crammed on top of each other and housing is a bit expensive. That's all I know from personal experience for the good areas... as for the bad, I made a note to avoid Golden, Arvada, Brighton (town, not really a suburb), Ft Collins (ditto) and the legendary Colfax Street (of Unsavory Working Women).

I can hardly keep my eyes open to write this but last nite I got hit with the worst virus ever... after projectile vomiting complete with nasal chunks I then had hours of liquid leaking out of my ass... I finally fell asleep on the couch only to wake up at 4 am with more shit leaking from my ass... I literally shit myself in my sleep. Again in the shower the same thing .... 4 Imodium AD's later I have finally firmed up and am able to hold liquids down... I am worried that after that much Imodium I may never shit again ...

Thank you for the forum ... I could never confess this in real life... I really needed to share.

My two year-old is going through stage where he is completely fascinated with his poop. Every poopie diaper that gets changed has to be inspected by him. He says, "wanna SEE it!" Then when I show him, he asks, "what KIND of poopie is it?" I have to describe it by its color or texture. Yuck. I hope this stage passes quickly. I'm starting to worry that my child is a little disturbed. What makes things worse is that he just got over the stomach flu and...well, maybe I ought not to say any more.

Blue seems to be a theme with my kids...
.
My youngest, who is 18 months and still in diapers, loves her some blueberries. As you all probably know, blueberries stain things pretty fiercely, but what you may not know is that this includes poops. Feed the kid blueberries at dinner and you'll have certified smurf poop in the morning.

The only remotely good personal poop story I have involves a nasty virus and "running from both ends" so to speak.

I did, however, just go see Margaret Cho's Revolution show and she had a great story about shitting herself in her car. I personally think she came here for some of her material. Don't let her rip you off, Dooce!

I just moved to Minnesota from Monument, CO (between Denver and Colorado Springs) 6 months ago. The south side of Denver is known as the DTC (Denver Tech Center) and (at least six months ago when I sold my house) it was a total buyers market. With all of the telecom out there, there are a ton of ex-Qwest/MCI/Worldcom employees who are just begging to give you their house. Also, Castle Rock (about 15 miles south of Denver) is quite a nice bedroom community that's been exploding in recent times. If your friend is in Tech, chances are this would be a good place to look.

A dog related poop story.

We use a tin to put excess oil and fat from cooking. Once, we used quite a large tin, and the oil went slightly rancid. I noticed this, and put it by the backdoor, out in the yard, so that I could put it in the bin in the morning.

Needless to say, I forgot. Maggie, our Kelpie cross, found it, drank it all (about 1 litre - a quart I think), and didn't feel too goo (naturally). She then proceeded to fart and shit rancid oil all over the house and our bed like a firehose.

Sigh.

Fran from gritmedia.net told me that you were looking for Denver advice. Here's my two cents...

I lived in Denver for several years, and never cared much for the its suburbs. They offer little personality and plenty of traffic during rush hours. Besides, the neighborhoods in central Denver are older and prettier, with better access to parks, libraries, and "cultural centers."

It's been a while, so I can't remember the names of all the "up and coming" neighborhoods, but Highland is one that comes to mind. Capitol Hill is filled with hip 20-somethings in apartments, along with record stores and restaurants. LoDo is overpriced, overhyped, and full of sports bars. Stay away.

Hope that helps.
