Summit Dive

Feet scrambling, full turbo! I dig my stubby arms straight into the corduroy sofa cushion. Up, up, flop! Made it! Couch mountain summit! From up here, the entire living room is tiny! That dark cabinet gap where the ball rolled? Just a speck! I puff my chest out, ready to survey my kingdom. Then—whoa! Total tilt! One heavy head wobble and down I tumble! Wheee! Straight faceplant into a soft velvet pillow below. Poot! Not a scratch. What a launchpad! Haha!
