Lauren comes out of her room. 

Lauren: Hey dad. 

Me: What's up?

Lauren: Did you know that if there was a planet with life on it right now that is 65 million light years away and if they had a telescope that could see that far and pointed it at us they would see dinosaurs roaming the earth. 

Me: Yeah, I know that. 

Lauren: Well, okay then.

She heads back in to her room. 

One hour later she comes back out. 

Lauren: Dad.

Me: Yes?

Lauren: Why the hell don't you have anxiety? That is crazy! They are watching dinosaurs right now, right here, this very minute! Dinosaurs dad, dinosaurs! I need a Xanax dad. 

Me: Where am I going to get Xanax? You need to stop watching National Geographic Channel. Leave me alone already!
