I'd sacrifice you for a blog post.

Since I started blogging I see every moment or event as a possible blog post and every interaction with another is an opportunity for inspiration. For instance, even if someone is stupid, I'll still engage with them, because there's a chance that I'll get to write about it later. Sometimes I even put my self in awkward situations just to see what happens.

I really like that, I think I'll put it on a shirt.

So the other day I went shopping with Jutt and of course we headed to Charlotte Russe first. We're looking around at the dresses and this old lady makes eye contact with me and says loudly "OH MY GOD!" so I asked her if everything was OK? And then she went off...on Jutt.
"No everything is not OK! Men should never wear earrings! That is for women only! I just don't think its right. I'm sorry, but sometimes I just can't hold my tongue on this kind of thing. It disgusts me."

Here's the thing...I could have stopped her in her tracks and told her to mind her own business, but I found the situation interesting and I wanted to see where it was going. So instead, I egged her on. I couldn't help myself. It was just too perfect, some 90 year old woman completely disgusted and offended by Jutt's earholes. She's freaking out, he's laughing hysterically and I'm giving her words of encouragement.

So after its all over, Jutt walks over to me and says..."What was all that about?" I can't decide if he means the sweet old lady or me helping her tear him apart. So I responded with "I'd sacrifice you for a blog post." It's true. I'll sacrifice anyone for a blog post, including myself. If I think there's even a remote chance that something worth writing about will happen, I'll stick around.

If you're my friend or even if you're not, this is your warning. Every interaction with me is a possible blog post and no one is safe.

Peace&Love
