Scene: Chad and I sitting at the bar at a local drinking establishment, late Saturday afternoon

Me: Yeah, I want to blog when I get home…but I can’t really celebrate Random Acts of Kindness Day.

Chad: Because “f*#k these people?”

Me: No, because who am I going to be kind to? I don’t really see anybody but you and randomly being kind to your spouse doesn’t really seem to fit…I did try to be extra nice to you earlier this week when I lost my phone. 

Chad: That was just you trying to minimize how much trouble you were in.

Me: Oh…well, I wasn’t mean to anybody at the gym today! Although no one was blocking the running lane. But I was nice, or at least not bitchy, to the woman who was in my way in the locker room. 

Chad: Well there, now your blog post is written. 

Me: But aren’t you sick of me blogging about you?

Chad: You haven’t violated any boundaries, and I really don’t give your blog that much thought.

End Scene

This image came up when I did a search for royalty-free images for “kindness” on Pixaby. It doesn’t make complete sense to me…

Seriously, can you believe that Chad and I don’t have a podcast? Or that I haven’t written a play yet? Although I will admit, I have had alcohol-fueled dreams of turning my blog into a one-woman Fringe show.
