The Olden Days

My morning at work started with little Annie turning in her book. It was an old book that had a small record in the back.
Annie: Mrs. Ord?
Mrs. Ord: Yes, Annie?
Annie: Is this what CDs used to be like before they got small?
Mrs. Ord: Um... sure.
Em: Ya... back in those olden days, right Mrs. Ord?
Mrs. Ord: (laughs) Yep, back in the olden days...
Annie: You lived in the olden days??
Mrs. Ord: Yep, I'm old enough to know that that's a record...
Annie: Woah... so... were you, like, alive during the 80's??
Mrs. Ord: Oh dear...
Em: Even I was alive during the 80's!
Annie: Woah!
Em: Ya... rough decade...
Mrs. Ord: (laughs) Sure... that was yesterday...
Annie: No... yesterday was Wednesday.
