I am Doodlebug, King of the Olde English Bulldogges.

Sweetie: Lady Human?
Me: Yes?
Sweetie: Something is wrong.
Me: What, pray tell?
Sweetie: It’s too quiet. There’s no wind, the humming kind or the whistling kind, and no loud human machines are roaring or rumbling.
Me: For how many days have you been complaining about too much noise? And now it’s quiet. Do you want the noise back?
Sweetie: Maybe…a little.
Doodlebug: I don’t want it back. Naptime.

MoonCat: No comment. Now it’s quiet.
