Matt has been determined to win something on the Arrow Morning show since he started commuting. Unlike California, Utah drivers are legally allowed to use their cell phones while driving. While in Utah, Matt decided to utilize his vast knowledge of classic rock and call in while on his daily drive to Provo. It happened. He won. Matt called me around 730am and told me to go listen to the radio. There was a song playing, but not one of "our" songs. I couldn't figure out why he'd called me to listen to this song. The song ended and I patronizingly said, "Oh thanks Matt that was cute," trying to be a supportive wife but having no idea why he wanted me to hear that song. "Keep listening!" he said. And then it hit me...he'd finally made it on the air. I then got to listen to my husband on the radio. The morning show hosts sang rock songs to "Lounge Music" tunes. So Matt had to know the lyrics, and he proved he did. He won us two nights in at the Park City Peaks Hotel and some concert tickets.

It was great to have a get-away filled with hot tubing, movies, a Wendy's run, late night ice cream from Cold Stone just to satisfy a craving, and some time to just be us and relax.


The second week went up to Park City we he a little delay. I met Matt in Provo after helping Tara move into her new place. We stopped at a gas station to fill up and share a Subway. After our pit stop we drove up Provo Canyon. When we reached the top, I told Matt that I had got directions to the hotel and they were in my.....PURSE! Where was my purse! I must have left it at the gas station subway! What a horrible place to leave it....the only thing worse would be a gas station in LA. So we anxiously (me more than Matt) drove back down the canyon to subway. Luckily they had pulled it behind the counter for me...RELIEF. We then drove back up the canyon and finally made it to our destination just before 8pm. Quick trip, yes, but wonderful, absolutely.
I'm just so good at planning weekend adventures (thanks to radio talk shows :D)
