Ziplocked and Loaded: A Poop Story

24 hours earlier… Mike and I are making our way downtown, driving fast, faces pass, headed to Georgia. About three hours in, the urge hits — a bowelquake. Like a true American, my body refuses to perform in public restrooms. It’s like TSA for poop: “Sorry, ma’am, you’re not cleared for takeoff.” At our midway…More

The very lazy river 🪵 💦

For months, my wife, daughters, and I had been looking forward to our family trip to Orlando, Florida. We’d planned it meticulously, booked our stay early, researched all the best attractions, and at the top of our list — even above the theme parks — was this one water resort. It had rave reviews, wild…More

Scrub-a-dub Bubble 🛁 💩

Parenthood is full of firsts — first steps, first words, first foods. Some are heartwarming. Some are hilarious. And some… well, some you’d rather forget.

Beach Blast ⛱️ 💩

Yesterday was supposed to be chill. I woke up, had a normal breakfast, and later ate a peach for lunch—which, in hindsight, might not have been washed as thoroughly as it should’ve been. That may have been where this saga began. Anyway, I went down to the beach for a quick swim—just 15 or 20…More

Never trust a fart when you’re stuck in traffic 💨 💩

Okay, so let me tell you what happened to me the other day because it was honestly one of the worst and most ridiculous moments of my life. So, I’m driving to this thing—it’s about an hour away if traffic is chill. I left on time, everything was fine at first, and I was just…More
