I forgot to say

also on that very long drive yesterday, Q said, "I'm not going to stick with this, but thank you for not always letting me play video games like all my friends, because it means that I read." We talked about what it means to be human and how video games may not be the highest of all human activities. Then Blaze told a detailed story about how a wizard was turned into a frog. When I asked how it connected to our conversation, he said that the wizard had been doing things that were not appropriate to its species and as a result he stopped being a wizard at all. I thought that that was a brilliant addition to our conversation.
