The Princess and the Pee

July 7, 2011 by Julie 137 Comments

The princess…

wheat germ cookies 020

And the pee.

No, not pea.

PEE.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, my dog likes to potty all the time.

Sadie’s pea-sized bladder was the bane of our run today.

dippy eggs 007

We set out to complete our usual five-mile loop, only my lovely running buddy decided she was going to pop a squat every half of a mile or so. We stopped at least 10 times for her to do her business. It was definitely more of a stop-start run than a fluid one.

I don’t mind stopping every now and then for Sadie’s potty breaks, but 10 times in less than 50 minutes felt a bit excessive. The air was also thick with humidity and I felt like every time we stopped, I started pouring sweat. For some reason the sweat doesn’t bother me when I’m running, but the minute I stop, I feel like the water works start and I am drenched.

Another thing I find odd? Where I sweat.

My face is literally soaked and my chest sweats like crazy, but my arm pits are completely dry. What gives? Apparently I need face and inter-boobie deodorant.

Breakfast

Post run, I came home and had one thing on the brain: Dippy eggs.

I topped one half of a toasted Thomas’ cinnamon raisin bagel thin with raspberry jelly and another half with a dippy egg and enjoyed my plate along with a cup of Greek yogurt and a hot mug of coffee.

Take that, hungry tummy.

Dippy eggs seriously rock.

    OMG..the humidity was AWFUL this morning. We walked out to go to the gym at 5am & I was already sweating just walking to the car…gross! Looks like we will have rain this afternoon though.
    Too funny about little Miss Sadie, & I love that top picture of her- she’s just so photogenic 😀

    Inter-boobie sweat is the absolute worst. I was complaining just the other day, that I was sweating nowhere else except for my chest. It feels SO gross.

    Our doggie has to stop a lot on any walk too. I think it’s just more of a calling card, you know. Just letting other doggies know they were there.

    I love that first picture of Sadie – she’s too cute. But I’m with you, in this weather, stopping is horrible, it’s SO hard to get going again! And I’m in the Northeast so I can only IMAGINE what it’s like in FL!

    That egg looks amazing – and I LOVE putting jam together with egg. I tried it for the first time a couple months ago and I can’t believe what I was missing.

    Lol yea, I also sweat a LOT on my face and chest. My face gets seriously gross, and I miss running in the gym with a towel to wipe all that nastiness off.

    I have a big problem with stopping and starting up again when I run. If I have to start running after a pause, I always feel heavy, like I’m dragging my feet along even though they don’t want to move 🙁

    I wonder why Sadie feels the need to pee s much?! Our family dog used to need to go to the bathroom ALL the time. I think they took him to the vet and they have him some meds to clear up an infection!

    i wish I didn’t sweat under my arms. It is the first p lace to sweat.. and can be embarassing in regular clothes!!

    My HEAD sweats the most. It’s awful! I have to shower after a workout, no matter what! My face and chest get pretty bad too, and actually my shoulders are far worse than my pits. Meanwhile my roommate looks as fresh as can be after any workout…so weird how we all even SWEAT differently!

    Our dog thinks that she’s a boy and must mark her territory. So 10 times to pee on a walk is pretty normal. Plus she does a “fake pee”, where she pops a squat and pretends to pee, but I don’t really see anything going on. Silly puppy!

    So glad that I run with my dogger on a wooded trail that allows dogs and people to get along – ie. off leash. The ability to have Belle running within a few meters of me and not constantly have to stop or pull on a leash is BEAUTIFUL!

I also don’t sweat under my arm pits thanks to some heavy duty deoderant, but my face, back, and stomach are always completely drenched in sweat. BTW you were so cute yesterday on that webisode! You seem like a really down to earth, friendly, and funny person 🙂 Wish I could meet you!

    It’s funny that you mentioned the whole sweat thing, because the other day I was discussing with my spin class how my nose doesn’t run at all when I’m out running, but it seems like I have to blow it ALL the time during spin!

    Did you get Sadie when you were still in school? Was it hard for her to be by herself when you were working full time? I really want to get a puppy but my boyfriend and I both work full time, so we’d have to get a dog walker or something along those lines.

      we got sadie a year after i graduated. i was working full-time, but my job was less than a mile from where i lived, so i was able to come home and walk her at lunchtime. it made it REALLY nice for potty training! i know a lot of kids would LOVE to be a dog walker! i’m not sure where you live, but maybe a teenager in the area could help?

        Thanks! I’ll definitely have to look into it…or move closer to where my job is so I can run home in the middle of the day! Knowing me I’d probably end up running home every hour just to see the puppy. 🙂

          We take our dog to doggie day care during the day! It’s not for everyone (i.e., anti-social dogs) but our dog absolutely loves it. They even have a web cam where we can check in and see him playing with his friends. Don’t know if they have anything like this where you’re from…

Can’t wait! (For the record, I think it’s a new mouse-free place to live).
