I'd like to dedicate today's post to every parent who has ever had to take care of a sick child. I've never had to...but I got a preview of what it might be like last night. And it wasn't fun. We came home after the Super Bowl to a bunch of chores we had to complete. We left Little Farrah B. in her crate as we didn't want her having any accidents in the house since we couldn't walk her immediately after getting home. As I ran around taking care of things, I heard her let out a new cry. It was quite different from her "let me out of here" whimpers, but I ignored her regardless. So about, 45 minutes after we got home, I finally went to Little Farrah B.'s crate and saw that not only had she barfed all over the place, she'd also had a mad case of diarrhea. Fucking ey! I grabbed her and took her to the bathtub so she could get a good scrub down from LSG. Wouldn't you know it? The poor thing got a mad, mad case of the squirts. All over LSG's bathtub. So after some sick ass cleaning and hardcore disinfecting, all was back to normal. Until we woke up this morning to find another squishy surprise. Obviously, we aren't going to be mad at Little Farrah B., she can't help being a dog and eating shit she's not supposed to. But it's not been fun taking care of the mess. So, anyway, Big Up's to all of you who've had to deal with an actual sick kid...I know that kid barf is far more gross than dog barf. And I know it must be quite tiring. I'm pretty tired from just two or three accidents. I just truly, truly hope Little Farrah B. is good by the time we get home. It's actually quite sad.
Potter must eat a lot more random crap than Farrah...this happens to us once every 2 months. It's so gross!
