Hello and welcome, I’m Renée Valentina and this is Musing Interruptus. A podcast meant for sharing thoughts, stories, enjoying idiomatic phrases and words in general. You can read along; the transcription is in the description of this episode. The idiomatic expressions are in italics. Try to get the meaning from the context and then look them up to see if you were right. If you like it, share it, but more importantly, continue the conversation. Today, It Was Stolen.

Disclaimer: I, Renée Valentina, know stealing is wrong, don’t steal from people, it is not only morally reprehensible it is illegal. My stories are fiction. That said… 

I stole it for you. I stole this story for you, today. This happened, and it's not mine, but I’d like to think that since I partially inspired the deed, I can tell the story, so, it is partially stolen.  ...
