Totally Worth It

Can I just brag for one minute about how awesome Matt is?

Last week, he came home with tickets to see David Sedaris. Some of you might be rolling your eyes and thinking how white of you, while others might be wondering why we would pay money to hear someone read. But it was absolutely worth it. Sitting on the back row in the sold out concert hall, Matt and I laughed the entire two hours. He read stuff written just for the tour, stuff that didn’t make it in his book, and a few articles recently published. If Mr. Sedaris is ever in your neck of the woods, GO. No, seriously. GO.

Matt also loves Sedaris, so it was a treat for him, too. But he loves the Portland Trailblazers more, and their first home game was the same night. Matt’s office has season tickets, so he gets to go just about whenever he wants. He could have gone to the Blazers’ game, but he took me to Sedaris instead. That is why he is so very awesome.

Oh, but don’t worry. We still made it to a bar in time to catch the 4th quarter. I think they even won.
