Let The Wild Rumpus Begin!

Girls, let's get crazy! Mom is in the shower and we have waited just long enough that she's probably got suds in her hair and won't be able to check on us.

Let's make enough noise that it sounds like we've invited elephants into our house. Let's do things that make loud thumps and bumps. Let's run so fast our claws skitter across the floor as we slide past the bathroom door. Let's bark and howl and all around celebrate in a wild rumpus sort of way!

And let's let it all stop suddenly, no thumps or bumps or claws or barks or howls, with a single hurt dog cry.

And when Mom comes out of the bathroom, wet and worried, let us be sitting on the couch, calm, cool, and collected, with no hint that we've been doing anything but sitting there listening to music.
Well, with only one hint. One Olive Badger, panting, tongue hanging out, is the only evidence that we had a wild rumpus.
Okay, Girls. Same time tomorrow? Meet me when Mom closes the bathroom door!
