My friend who has this blog did this thing

So you know the thing that people only ever do in movies where they refer to things that they have done or thought or felt or wondered or whatever as things that their FRIENDS did? Like: "I have this friend, and I think he might have a fetish for blue lizards and he wanted me to ask you..." That kind of thing. Only in the movies, right? So I thought too, until I actually DID IT last week. Like whoa. No... I don't have a fetish for blue lizards (although they're just so scaly and... and and blue... mmm) aaaanyway: the point is I was talking to someone who wouldn't know any better and didn't need to any better, and, after having divulged enough private information to justify this, I mentioned someone I'd sort of liked even though I knew I shouldn't have as someone MY FRIEND has liked even though he shouldn't have. Weird, right?

THEN I told a friend of mine this story, and she said she'd done the same thing. It's becoming endemic. She also said that if she thinks she's been talking about one person too much she'll reassign stories about that person to OTHER PEOPLE in her life. AND I DO THIS TOO. Like if I come home and I'm talking about A-person all the time and my family is getting sick of her and totally thinks we've eloped in secret, I'll tell a story that's actually about A-person but SAY it's about B-PERSON. Is this normal or is it just the eccentricity that keeps me friends with my friends who also does this? Seriously, I'd never done the thing where I pretend it wasn't before last week (although I always do the reassigning thing)... in fact, I've never even been in a situation where I had reason to believe it was done.

Also, don't know what's up with the caps in this post... but yeah. I kinda like it.
