Ass Grass

February 24, 2011 by Julie 121 Comments

Even though you guys know I love my poems, the title of this blog post is actually relevant to the content within this post. I wasn’t just feelin’ rhyme-happy, though I wouldn’t put that past me considering my morning blog post title.

Brace yourself for some ass grass! Surprised smile

When we arrived home from work today, Ryan and I leashed up Sadie for an evening at the dog park!

Sadie spent about three minutes sprinting about, sniffing the extra smelly spots in the park (Yay feces!) before she noticed a bright yellow frisbee stuck in a tree just begging to be used in endless rounds of fetch.

Ryan came to her rescue.

quesadillas 022 Hooray!

We played fetch for a good 45 minutes. Sadie typically fetches sticks or balls, so the frisbee was a new thing for her. She’s so flippin’ fast and had no trouble catching it in the air a handful of times. We were proud puppy parents.

Well, we were proud puppy parents until we noticed it.

Ass grass.

Ass. Grass.

A blade of grass literally sticking out of her ass.

How does that even happen???

I’ll spare you the details, but let’s just say someone plucked the grass from her ass.

Thank goodness our dog park has bathrooms. And they have antibacterial soap. And we keep hand sanitizer in the car. And I couldn’t stop laughing.

Eventually we headed home, ready to get started on dinner. (Don’t worry, more hand washing ensued.)

Dinner

Dinner tonight was easy peasy! Just my style.

Our meal included roasted curried cauliflower and jam-packed quesadillas.

quesadillas 077

In the ‘dillas:

  • Whole wheat tortilla
  • Shredded Mexican cheese
  • Black beans
  • Sautéed onions
  • Black bean and roasted corn salsa

I used to make quesadillas all the time when I first graduated from college. I need to make these lil’ babies more often! They’re easy, tasty and a great way to jam a bunch of veggies into dinner.

Time to make some Red Hots applesauce. Tomorrow is FRIDAY!

    Does Ryan eat the same dinner you do? I sometimes end up making extra food for my bf (mainly some type of meat). He’s definitely a meat & potatoes kinda guy! 🙂

    ROTFLMAO! I love the fact that you captured a picture of the ass grass…that is priceless. Then only you could so seamlessly move from that to a delicious looking quesadilla in the same post!

    I haven’t had the pleasure of ass grass removal with my golden, as she has too much hair down there to see anything. Our late greyhound, however, trotted through the house once or twice proudly showing off her ass grass.

    Your post made my day today! =)

    I think you made everyone reading your blog LOL with the ass grass. I couldn’t stop because I just imagined my husband and I having to deal with that with our boxer.

    I haven’t had a quesadilla in forever and you inspired me to rummage for the makings for one. 🙂

    BAHAHAHAH you just made my morning.. wow that is hilarious.. especially because it was literally one perfectly positioned blade of grass.. LOVE IT

    the probably with my dog isn’t ass grass, but more like pooey-ass.. he’s a sheltie so he’s covered with hair, right.. and that means that when he plops to go number 2, the hairs all down in there and in his tail enjoy the ride too……

    HAHAHAHAHAHA. Holy moly, I literally just laughed out loud (cue coworkers thinking I’m totally nutso.) But I totally know what that’s like!! It’s even worse when your dog has eaten hair… it causes some, um… dangle-age.

    … Doggy TMI? Is there such a thing between dog owners?

    Regardless, HIlarious.

    That’s so funny! I can’t believe you took a picture!!!! hahaha!!!! My brother’s dog has some anxiety problems and ends up pooping in her kennel practically every day. So their dog trainer told them to try to get her to poop every morning before they leave to help alleviate some of her accidents. You know how they were told to do it? Put a matchstick in her butt! Super gross, but it works…

    OMG, this reminded me of when my sister bought a Chihuahua back in 1988. She was going to beauty school at the time and one day while she was gone, the dog chewed one of the mannequin heads to pieces! We didn’t realize he had eaten a lot of the long hair until we walked him that evening and he tried to poop. Talk about a horrific experience of pulling long hair from his butt (with a leaf). I’m not sure if it freaked us or the dog out more. LOL

    HAHAHAHA. OMG that happens to our dogs rather frequently…it’s disgusting/ I can’t imagine how uncomfortable that has to be.

    Mostly though, I’m thrilled someone used “ass” in a post title. This is huge for the blogworld. I’m being totally serious!

    HANGER..SADIE HAS A HANGERRR!!!

    This is so funny, as our Daisy May LOVES grass and eats it every day much to our dismay.

    So, hubby and I have named it “hanger” and if she has some grass sticking where the sun don’t shine, she will run around, dragging but, and then in house frantic, and whoever spots her first yells “HANGER! HANGERRRRRR!!!” and the spotter get napkin, while her butt is between out legs.

    When the deed is done (which includes a wipe with a tucks and much washing on the parents side) she then knows she gets a treat, so she points her nose up to the treats and kisses us in gratitude.

    HANGERRR!!!

    Hiya, I am really glad I’ve found this info. Today bloggers publish only about gossips and web and this is actually irritating. A good web site with interesting content, this is what I need. Thank you for keeping this web-site, I will be visiting it. Do you do newsletters? Can’t find it.
