Dinosaurs and Spiders and Cupcakes Oh My!


PART1:

Somehow Ada and I got into a "discussion" about dinosaurs.
To paraphrase:

Ada: Where are the Dinosaurs?

Me: [Knowing that she is familiar with the concept of death] There aren't around anymore.

Ada: They 'Died-ed?' (how cute is that?) … how'd they died-d?

Me: There are many theories on this but it was most likely that their food source somehow became limited due to climate change - which had a domino affect, causing extinction to many species. There are also theories about the drifting apart of the continents leading to this.

Ada: Where can we see the dinosaurs?

Me: There are still animals that are kinda like dinosaurs around today … like an Alligator (or maybe an armadillo).

Ada: At the zoo?

Me: YES!!!

2 days later:
[my call phone rings (vibrates) at work]

Julie: Hi … Ada wants to know where the Dinosaurs are …

Me: OH, you are at the ZOO!

Julie: Yeah

Me: Laughing like I'm high (on life)

Julie: Ada said that you told here there are Dinosaurs at the zoo.

Me: Aaawh, how cute … You need to go to the alligators because that's what i told Ada.

Then I said some other stuff where I was trying to be funny but I can't remember what it was.

End part 1 (Dinosaurs).
