how labour day weekend started

my aunt diana and uncle norm rolled into town for the weekend, it's been fun having them around. i went shopping with my aunt, mom, and sisters yesterday while my uncle, dad, and brother went to a byu football game, and yeah i would rather shop with a bunch of women then go to a football game. also it was cool of my aunt to buy me a couple records for my upcoming birthday. later we had dinner at p.f. chang's.

on friday travis and i went to the provo fye to browse their record selection, they put them in boxes now, they have that many. travis payed so much money for the white album by the beatles and i bought on avery island by neutral milk hotel, i'm listening to it now. after fye we went to a show at this bar in provo called abg's.

my friend joe is in the band that performed, he asked me to try and make it this time and i did. they're called the split reactions. travis bought us an apricot ale each, those beers are really good. the rest of the beers were free thanks to joe receiving free drink tickets for playing. margaret who is also in the band showed up with her friend allie who i've never met before, she only just moved here recently. and so this was the company at our table. the first band to play was a local band called the alligators. they played their set of sugary pop songs and you couldn't hear them sing and despite this i thought they were really good. the split reactions did their thing second and played well. i also got to see a few friends i haven't seen for a while, it was nice to be remembered and welcomed.
