Should I cut blooms?

My mother-in-law brought home an Endless Summer hydrangea for our patio. It's still in the pot. I have no plans to put it in the ground. I adore hydrangeas, and these have a beautiful bluish purple color. There are probably seven blooms right now.

So my question: should I cut some blooms to enjoy in my home? How will that affect the plant itself? Every internet search I do tells me how to treat the cut blooms, but I am interested to know how long it will take the plant to re-bloom. I don't want to miss out on cut hydrangeas in my home in case I screw up and this thing dies all together. Does it matter where on the stem I cut?
