I was fed up with Junee constantly rolling this stupid ball under the couch, and I had to army crawl underneath the furniture to rescue it every single night. So, one day, I stuck it in a drawer and told her she wouldn't get it back until tomorrow. Jokes on me. Apparently, she decided to let me know this was a game of Hide n' Seek, and she would pass it whether I wanted her to or not.
