I am Doodlebug, King of the Olde English Bulldogges.

Sweetie: Make it STOP! Some human is hitting one of those boxes with one of those sticks and I can’t sleep.
Doodlebug: They call it a ‘drum’ and a ‘drumstick’, but not the kind of drumstick that humans chew on. That is very different and smells wonderful.
Me: You are hearing heavy rain hitting an empty washtub outside. It will stop when it stops.

MoonCat: Or when someone like a human brings the washtub inside out of the rain. Just a suggestion.
