Hey Peepers, are you in there?
Hey Peepers!
PEEPERS!
PEEPERS! ARE YOU IN THERE?
Oh good, I was just checkin' you were there.
MOUSES!
But uh... But how come you didn't answer me the first time?
I DON'T CARE that you were in the bathroom, takin' a shower. You still could have answered.
Which would have saved me from havin' to yell.
MOUSES!
So anyway...
So anyway, now that I know you're in there, you can go back to doin' whatever, although you might wanna first take the time to mop up the water you dripped all over the floor.
What?
DON'T BLAME ME 'cause you got out of the shower to answer my calls and ended up drippin' water all over the floor. I didn't tell you to get all soppin' wet in the first place. AND I CERTAINLY didn't tell you to stand at the door drippin' water all over....
What?
Well...
Well, had you told me you were gonna take a shower BEFORE you took said shower, I would have known where you were. I would have known you were in the shower and I wouldn't have had to sing the song of my people over and over AND OVER again outside the bathroom door, tryin' to figure out if you were in there or not and...
What?
Well, yeah. Yeah, maybe not at our house. But I'm sure that if you look long and hard enough, you'll find some plumber, somewhere, who had to make an emergency visit to somebody's house 'cause water was runnin' when it wasn't supposed to be runnin' and ended up runnin' all over the place, when no one was takin' a shower.
MOUSES!
But like I said, Peepers, now that I know you're actually in there... Now that I know where you are.... Now that I know, you can go back in there and finish up with your shower.
I just needed to know.
'CAUSE I'M A CAT, THAT'S WHY. We cats like to be kept informed.
MOUSES!
Boy-oh-boy, explain' stuff to peeps can be so difficult, at times.
For mousin' out loud, all I wanted to know was where she was.
It's not like I was askin' for state secrets, or anythin' like that.
I get those on Signal chat.
MOUSES!
Hmmm... You know, it's been at least two minutes since I heard from her last. I should probably do something 'bout that.
Hey Peepers, are you still in there?
Hey Peepers!
PEEPERS!
PEEPERS! ARE YOU STILL IN THERE?
Yup, she must be. Just heard the water bein' turned off and I'm pretty sure it doesn't do that all on its own.
And now the door handle is turnin'.
And now...
DON'T LOOK at me like that, Peepers. I was just wonderin' if you were still in the shower.
You know, you really should have told me just how long you would be. That would have saved me from havin' to check on you again, and all that.
MOUSES!
AND DON'T FORGET TO MOP UP ALL THAT WATER YOU'VE DRIPPED ALL OVER THE FLOOR.
AGAIN.
Good gosh, a kitty could get his paws wet walkin' into the bathroom after you've been in there, havin' your stupid shower.
MOUSES!
Gee, that all sounds preetty familar Seville MOL!
ReplyDeleteHappens at your house, too? MOUSES!
DeleteHumans can be so inconsiderate. Would it be that hard to always let you know what they are doing? :)
ReplyDeleteSeriously. Peeps never think about us cats and our insatiable curiosity. MOUSES!
DeleteWell, the shower coulda sprung a major leak and that's why it would run without the Peeps in it. Just hope she didn't try to make you join in the wet.
ReplyDeleteOh no, once I knew what she was up to, I skedaddled myself right outta there. MOUSES!
DeleteThat's just so like humans. Puddles and not telling their cats where they are going, how long they will be and countless other matters we cats need to know so we can dismiss them.
ReplyDeleteTell me, what happened next? Was there copious mopping and then the creation of an online tracking and agenda system? A white board would do at a pinch. I have one and Mrs H fills in all her tasks and rotas. Not the blade sort of rotas, I've not managed to make her into Inspector Gadget quite yet ;)

There were puddles everywhere, my friend. Puddles just about EVERYWHERE! And not the good kind of puddles like puddle water outside or nice warm sunpuddles inside but rather, soapy wet watery icky ol' puddles all over the bathroom floor. MOUSES!
DeleteMOUSES. You think she'd be THANKFUL that you were waning to know her whereabouts, Sivvers. Amiright?
ReplyDeleteYou are MOST DEFINITELY right, to be sure. MOUSES!
DeleteMOUSES! She should be glad to know someone is checking up on her to make sure she's all right! I mean to say, hasn't she heard of people slipping in the shower and falling and hitting their head and getting knocked out and then drowning in less than an inch of water?!
