There are tasks that are gross enough that you only undertake them out of love and duty.

[xiphias]

One such task is cleaning dog crap from the treads in your wife's good shoes.

Tools used included:

• a garden hose
  
• the weeds around the side of the house
  
• the tree stump around the side of the house
  
• paper towels
  
• Q-tips
  
• hydrogen peroxide
  
• rubbing alcohol
  
• a paper clip
  
• Lysol Scrubbing Bubbles
  
• a toilet plunger due to some problems with the disposal of some of the above items.
  

But the task is done.

I love lots of people, but I have an "everybody scrapes the poop off their own shoes, including me" policy that I don't ever think I could ever bring myself to suspend.
