When the rain falls

Dear Children.
I am tired of yelling at brick walls and speaking a language I am sure is English, but must sound like gobbledigook to your sweet shell-like ears. 
If you hear the shower running in my bathroom you should not:
1.  tap, tap, tap on the door
2.  whine
3.  ask me to start a movie for you
4.  ask me if you can have a cookie
5.  tell on your siblings
6.  tell me that you are going over to the neighbor's house
7.  tell me that you've opened the front door against explicit directions and a stranger is standing in our messy living room
8.  oh..... why bother.  the list is endless.
You should on the other hand, disrupt my five minutes of cleanliness for this:
1.  The kitchen is on fire and you've already dialed 911.  Good initiative and poor, harmless fire fighters won't have to have their vision seared.
2.  Nope.  That's it.  I don't have any more reasons for you to tap, tap, tap on my bathroom door.
