Paulo's Book Club: "Go The Fuck To Sleep"

"The eagles who soar through the sky are at rest
and the creatures who crawl, run and creep.
I know you're not thirsty. That's bullshit. Stop lying.
Lie the fuck down, my darling, and sleep."


This book is for every parent who tried to put a child to sleep. And we're not talking about babies, we're talking about walking, talking toddlers, who stall, delay and concoct excuses.



Every night 10 minutes after going to bed Chase comes down and asks if he can get a car to bring upstairs to sleep with him. We usually allow that. The second time he comes out is usually to ask what show we're watching. Sometimes he does that in reverse order and asks us not to pause the show when he comes down to get his car, so he can see the show. If he's really tired that will be it. But on other nights he'll come out three or four more times until we threaten to lock the door.



Oh yeah, that reminds me, "I'm thirsty" is another good one. This book looks hysterical and it's not just an internet thing. You can actually buy it on Amazon (using the link above) and a hard copy will ship in October.

  1. This is me commenting, due to your rather aggressive and mean-spirited threat (on the banner the main Poop page). If my company's VPN didn't block your site, I'd have more opportunities to comment. But alas, your adult humor, foul language and NSFW pictures have led to a blockage of access at work. Nice going, a-hole!

    I totally see Darren following in Chase's footsteps... he's already starting to come up with his own tricks. We'll have to check out the book.
