Funny you should ask...

I got a funny question at church yesterday. I had mentioned we were gonna do this music night thing at my house after institute on Wednesday and a girl asked me if I had a microphone... Possible answers that went through my head:

"Oh, twenty or thirty. I hope that's enough."
"No, I was hoping I could borrow one actually."
(Stupid look and silence for several seconds until they deduced the obvious.)

But I decided on nice, and just said "yes".

See? I'm not always mean and sarcastic, even if they are the first impulse.

You exercised a lot of self control.. I'm so proud of you... if we both were standing there when she asked the question, we probably would have looked at each other weird and said what you would have said had you not thunk twice.

Speaking of mics. When I standing by the podium ready to sing on Sunday night and having to grab that mic (that was all brokified)I was thinking "I wish I had one of Jared's 20-30 mics".

What a stud you are for being nice.

I think I might have laughed in their face.

Thank goodness for repentance! Ha!

What is Boston doing to you? :)
At least it hasn't completely ruined the Jared that I know...(i.e. you still THOUGHT those things. hehe)

Then again, I think a simple "yes" still holds a bit of sarcasm.
