My car smells like farts

by SkinnyRunner on June 30, 2011

WORKOUT – Ran outside 13.75 miles/1:53  no music, hot, some hills, part with friends

This morning I ran with Pam and Margot; of course being the awesome person I am, I overslept and was 30 minutes late.  Why anyone would want to be friends with me besides my mom is beyond me.

They did some miles before I got there and then we did 5.9 miles/48 minutes.  I was going to do a few more with Pam, but my stomach was like, “Let’s get ready to rummmmmmmbbbbblllle!”  I needed to get intimately acquainted with my toilet and fast.

And I was starving too.  So I sped home, had a business meeting in the throne room and then ate.  After the intestines quieted down, I went and did the rest of the miles around my house; I made sure not to wander off too far just in case…

An eventful morning it was… for my toilet.

Let’s have another round of Cat lady Blogs!

Today’s cat lover is CatasTrophyWife.

Hi, I’m CatasTrophy Wife!!  I always wanted to be a trophy wife, but somehow ended up with a trophy husband. 

CTW follows the craziness of my life and what it’s like to be married to a 50 year old who looks (and acts) like he’s 20.  Oh, and I’m not 50, I’m 31.

I live in Oregon and have a legal career.  I’m also a part-time harpist, although I rarely perform.  I love reality tv, reading gossip magazines and nail polish. 

I make a lot of inappropriate hand gestures, run the occasional 5k with friends and love to talk about how much food the trophy husband eats.

I blog about family, friends, pets…well, pretty much anything, I guess.  If you want to know more about the shake weight, aqua jogging or shaving a mohawk into your dog…visit CatasTrophy Wife!

Ok so I had never read CatasTrophyWife’s blog and now that I have a little, she is HILARIOUS and I want to know her life story.  Go check out her blog now!

I think you meant throne room, not thrown…unless you actually throw things in there, like a monkey. ;) Hey I don’t judge!

Lots of times I have to plan my runs around my house (or accessible potties)… sometimes my stomach isn’t so cool with my veggie intake.

Those runs are the WORST (bad choice of words huh?). I’ve definitely been there!

You know, I don’t ever remember talking about poop too much until I started running. Now, I’d say it’s in the top 5 things I discuss on the regular.

I was cracking up just reading the title of this post. I was dying trying not to laugh out loud at the end….

I guess it’s mean to say that I’m happy that even amazing people like you sometimes have the same issues with running and bathrooms that I do. My first 20 mile run included 6 bathroom stops at random gas stations and mcdonalds. So lame. Being vegetarian unfortunately (at least when it comes to running) means a lot of fiber.

Aww, that’s too bad. Running unfortunately has that kind of side-effect.

I am overwhelmed with the plethora of innappropriate comments about the following, putting a punishing on the throne, a man using the shake weight, and twisted alien finger hand gestures! I think I need a nap from all that is going on in my head right now! ;-)

Melissa at Take Another Step June 30, 2011 at 12:27 pm

Hahaha! I have the same problem! I had it on Monday, and I start getting really sweaty and nervous about where I am going to have to drop trou and who is going to see my white moon. Oh, the Runners Life.

I am cracking up over here!
Have you seen the episode of the Sarah Silverman Program where Sarah and her sister Laura are driving in the car, and Sarah says “Laura, your car smells like farts!” I’m assuming that’s where you borrowed this post title from? :-)

Lisa (The Novice Nosher) June 30, 2011 at 1:19 pm

Bwahahaha the title of this post just reminds me of story involving my friend, who forgot she had trash in the trunk of her car, tried masking the growing stench with a vanilla car freshener, and then finally remembered the trash days later. Another friend rode in the car with her after and asked why it smelled like vanilla farts.

So yeah…maybe one of those fresheners will help with that stench. :P

Alisa @ Runs With Knives June 30, 2011 at 2:44 pm

I never am more than one mile from a bathroom on any of my runs for this reason. Aside from my house, I run past four different public toilets, which also have free water! Sometimes this benefits me greatly, but other times I hate running in circles.

Sara June 30, 2011 at 3:06 pm

I LOVE your blog! You are so beautiful & my fitness inspiration! & PLEASE tell Pam to start a blog! You two are such great runners and make me want to continue my efforts with running :)

It’s “refreshing” to know that you sometimes battle with the same run/poop problem as us mere mortals!

I’m surprised you made it home. I’ve had to leave my mark many a time in a field, behind a tree, at the local 7-11, at a friend’s house, and even in my parents’ side yard (don’t ask – and no, they don’t know! I hope they think it was their dog!). Glad to hear I’m not the only one who sometimes get the call of nature.

Funny stuff! Sometimes while running you just have to pull over and use a neighbor’s bushes or tree.
