A short conversation
Cats: miscellanea|“I’ll be in the bathroom. Get started on your homework.”
“Ok.”
…..
“Mom?” “Mom!” “Maaaaaahm…” “MOMMY!”
“WHAT?! I’m in the BATHroom! JAYZUS!”
“Mom? I…”
“You what? Is the house burning down?”
“No, I…”
“Is there a burglar in the apartment?”
“No, I jus…”
“Because if there is not an emergency of equivalent importance to those two things, I am NOT to be disturbed. Anything else can wait until I am not in the bathroom. Yes?”
“Ok, but all I wanted…”
“It can wait. Can it wait?”
“Yes.”
“Ok.”
“I’m just going to tell…”
“It’s waiting. Isn’t it waiting?”
” …… Ok.”
“Ok.”
“But I…”
“WAITING!”
…..
“I…”
“Homework. You. Living room. Waaaaiting.”
