Anah: GUESS WHO IS BACK?!
Matt: Shady?
Anah: Um… who?
Matt: The Eminem song…
Anah: He’s a rapper, right?
Matt: Yes.
Anah: I knew that.
Matt: You make me laugh.
Matt: How was LA and Walk the Moon?
Anah: Well… it wasn’t just Walk the Moon.
Matt: Huh?
Anah: Well… we went to the first night of KROQ Almost Acoustic Christmas thing… and there were other bands there too.
Matt: *Groan* Who? Anyone I like?
Anah: I’m not sure…
Matt: Tell me who they were and I’ll tell you if I like them.
Anah: Ok. Well, first there was Royal Blood.
Matt: I like them.
Anah: New Politics?
Matt: And them.
Anah: Walk the Moon.
Matt: Them, too.
Anah: Rise against?
Matt: Not in my top 5 but I like them enough.
Anah: Bush.
Matt: They’re ok.
Anah: Fall Out Boy.
Matt: I like them.
Anah: Incubus.
Matt: Yep.
Anah: Linkin Park.
Matt: *groan* Yes.
Anah: System of a Down?
Matt: Hm… no. I don’t like them.
Anah: If it’s any consolation, Imagine Dragons are playing tonight and I don’t get to see them.
Matt: That kinda makes me feel better.
Anah: They would have been amazing live.
Matt: Yep.
Matt: Did you have fun, though?
Anah: *smiles* Yeah.
Matt: Did you kick anyone in the balls?
Anah: No. Whenever a guy came within speaking distance of me Noah told them that I was only 18. Then they would walk away.
Matt: Have I ever told you that I love your brother?
Anah: Warming up to him now, huh?
Matt: Totally.
Matt: Are you home, as in house home, or home as in East Coast home?
Anah: Just walked through the door. Eden came to pick me up.
Matt: Don’t forget to ask Eden about your gifts.
Anah: Gifts? Plural?
Matt: For yesterday and today.
Anah: More roses.
Matt: Yep.
Anah: You don’t have to send me a rose every day, you know.
Matt: I know I don’t have to, but I want to.
Anah: I love you.
Matt: I love you too.
Anah: I wish I could talk to you more, but I’m literally falling asleep on my feet.
Matt: Karma.
Anah: How is that karma?
Matt: It’s what you get when you go see epic bands without me.
Anah: But the bands were amazing.
Matt: I’m re-thinking the whole ‘I love you’ thing.
Anah: No, you’re not, Pinocchio.
Matt: Haha… you know me too well, Penguin.
Anah: Night, Monkey.
Matt: Um… it’s only six pm, Babe.
Matt: Anah?
Matt: You there?
Matt: Sweet dreams.
