“But hey…you could write about it on your blog!”
“You know I have a blog?”
blink, blink, blinkity-blink…
“Yeeah…I saw you in the paper awhile back and recognized you and I’ve pretty much read it every day since. I’m a fan!”

I’m going to cross my fingers this happens to me next time I fill up the gas tank! So awesome!
