K: Dave?
Dave: Yes, K.
K: Can I write something on your computer?
Dave: OK. Do you want to write something we can post on our blog?
K: Yes.
Dave: OK, but not on this (grabbed his hand before he could tap on the keyboard). This is important work stuff. Let’s open a new document. Now, tell me what you want to say and I’ll type it.
K: Say hi to my mom, and my sisters, and my brother, and... I don’t know what else to say.
Dave: How about telling them how you feel?
K: Sick.
Dave: What kind of sick?
K: It hurts when I swallow, and I’m hot.
Dave: Have you been hungry?
K: Yeah.
Dave: What did you eat for lunch?
K: A Hot Pocket.
Dave: What flavor of Hot Pocket did you eat?
K: Yes. Can I go play my DS now?
K back on the couch
with Mac and his DS.
