On the signs of spring

We are sitting on the patio, drinking tea and Diet Coke.

Jessica: There is a robin.

Me: Yes. Oh, the other day I saw the fattest robin ever.

Jessica: Really? Was it like that robin there?

Me: Well, it was a robin shape, you know. And it was a robin color. But it was the biggest robin I have ever seen. He made me smile.

Jessica: When did you see it?

Me: Oh, a week or so ago. He had a very grouchy expression! And I was like, you should be happy! You obviously got all the worms.

Jessica: Have you seen him since?

Me: No. But if I do I will point him out to you.

Jessica: That is all right. You have already shown me.
