A Goose in the Closet


Rusty:  What are we writing about today?

Micah:  I don't know.  What do you want to write about?

Rusty:  I have no idea.  Preferably something quiet.

Micah:  I know what you mean.  My ears are still ringing from the almost non-stop coughing and honking that have been going on around here for so long.

Rusty:  Too long.  I'm starting to think Marcus is hiding one of his goose friends in a closet or under the bed.

Micah:  Yes, he's the only one around here that is getting any rest.  He can sleep through anything!

Rusty:  We could keep him awake by making him a recording of Jan honking and hacking and then play it at full volume.

Micah:  Nah, better not.  We'd all have to listen to it.

Rusty:  Not if we lock him outside in the dog pen and play the recording for him.

Micah:  But it would disturb the neighbors and that could become embarrassing.

Rusty:  How so?

Micah: I've heard humans get embarrassed when the police come knocking at the door.

Rusty:  Oh, right.  So what should we do?

Micah:  Do you hear that?

Rusty:  What?  I don't hear anything.

Micah:  Exactly. Either Marcus let the goose out of the closet or Jan is taking a moment to breathe.

Rusty:  Did we ever decide what we're going to post about today?

Micah:  I don't have any suggestions.  Maybe we should just skip posting today and have a nap instead.
