nina's good night musings...

i've written before about how nina comes up with the most bizarre things to worry about before falling asleep. lately it's mostly been anxiety over things going down the drain in the tub (toys, barbie, hair elastics). but here's the conversation nick reported tonight:

nina: so, aye-aye's can't reach the doorknob, right?
nick: no, they can't reach the doorknob.
nina: ok. but we always keep the two doors closed at night, right?
nick: yes.
nina: but if one came in and tried to take my shoes, i could just throw an apple at it.
nick: well you don't need to worry about it, they don't live in maine. they live in madagascar.

throw an apple at it! where does she come up with this stuff?

(an aye-aye is a kind of monkey from madagascar).
