Matthew, Mark, Luke and John watching JAZZ

DISCLAIMER: this picture was not taken during the actually game, but a re enactment taken shortly after the game.


so we brothers decided to get together and watch some play off basketball. mark was very enthusiastic as you can see, the was out before halftime.
The plan was to get some pizzas and soda and just enjoy the game, well mark wanted a salad, and john is "allergic" to cheese. so i grabbed two pizzas for luke and i, we polished off a little over one, then when mark got there he finished the left overs, and then when john got there, he decided he wanted some pizza also and was surprised when it was gone. what gives, luckily jess saved the day and made him some food. it was fun, the jazz won and marky didn't even start snoring.

Worst Movie Ever???

I've learned a lesson, if you go to a redbox on a night when, let's just say BYU is having it's reading days, which essentially means that all 30,000 students are out and about lollygagging. With that many wandering students the idea of a dollar dvd creates quite the attraction, the redbox becomes an entertainment mecca. The lesson is that on nights like this you better not even plan on getting a good movie, of course we had to check the list twice just to make sure we didn't miss anything.(we = my date whitney and myself) The movie we picked was "Lucky You"Now don't get me wrong, it's not as painful as the titanic, but perhaps that is because i had some female companionship and we had lots of fun, making fun of the show. i won't lie, there were a few good lines, but if put in the mix with a trip to the proctologist, a coin flip would be the deciding factor.
So in a hasty generalization, byu students ruin movie watching experiences for the rest of the community. lesson learned.

I won the raffle, but there wasn't even a raffle....???.....

Monday, April 14 around 10:55 a.m. i glance down at my phone and notice a text that i apparently received sometime while i was sleeping, it said"Hey! Sorry i know this is really late notice but i have 2 extra tickets to the concert tomorrow night if you want them. Please let me know asap" The text was from Bridgette, a girl that my friend Kammon used to date. Since i rarely ever talked to her, i just assumed that she had sent that text to the wrong matt, and went back to work. just as my mind had put the text aside my phone rang and it was bridgette, i was the right matt. She reminded me that last week Kammon and i had entered a raffle that she was supervising, but the people holding the event forgot to do the raffle, so she had two tickets to Jimmy Eat World concert , that is if i wanted them. It was tough but i said yes, i'll take them.
Since Kammon had bought a raffle ticket with me, karma would dictate that he got first right of refusal. He was stoked(excellent word from the early 90's). then at about 2p.m. Kammon starts forwarding me these texts that he's getting from a girl that is trying to convince him to go to the jazz game and sit with her on the 14th row.(this is the last home game) He told her he was already going to the concert. I called him and told him he should go to the game, heck i know i would, i had debated a little earlier if i would rather see the concert or stay home and watch the game. Now since she was trying to subvert my friend into flaking on me, we devised a brilliant plan. She could have Kammon for the game as long as she provided a pretty face to take his place. And she pulled through, so i ended up going with a pretty girl, which of course is much better than a dude. :)
As it turns out the concert tickets were vip tickets, so we got to miss the lines and the frisking and were escorted upstairs to a buffet of Costa Vida and a bottomless bin of vitamin water and vitamin energy drink. Of course i drank a few, i had to get all the value out of my free tickets.


Obviously this is Paramore, the singer was a spunky
little angry girl.

And if the other was Paramore, this of course is Jimmy Eat World
if you look really close and cross your eyes, you can almost see the lead
singer in the middle. with a really good imagination you probably can.

so i'm falling asleep trying to create the ambiance of my blog. Hope you enjoy the music, i tried to stay on the chill side of the scale. So i've gotta tell Luke-n-Jess and Amie Jo that i'm tryin to keep up with them and their blogs, but since i'm neither married nor living 600 miles away, i guess i'm gonna have to try extra hard to keep up and stay entertaining.

My First Time

This is my first time, first time blogging that is. I wasn't sure if i was ready to write anything, but hey if i don't, the spam detector keeps thinking that my account is crap and locks me out of it. So here i am a couple of swear words later and starting to ramble. So there is my first blog, perhaps a little short but oh well.
cheers
