Not just my ex, my ex and my sister. My sister saw pics of my ex and thinks he's cute. :p So in a sense, I'd be setting her up on a date with him... he's a nice guy.

Didn't your ex physically threaten you? And you are setting him up with your sis?

Oh, no no no, not THAT ex!

This ex that'll be taking my sis is the 19-year-old UCLA theater major, Kyle. :) He's harmless, really... really sweet guy, we parted ways amicably and are now better friends than we were when we were bf/gf.

Kyle, not Frankie

AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH a woman just called and offered me 2 box seats to the Lakers vs. Pistons game on Tuesday at the Staples center... I guess her friends are producers, and REALLY want to go to the MTV Awards show to network.

I'm tempted to make up an excuse to tell my sister, but that would make her sad... :( I love my sis and I want to show her a good time, but I think box seats go for $1000's... O_O

*torn*

I'll probably end up giving them to my sister, but the woman's going to call back at 8pm with their exact location...

make some damn money off the tix, and take your sister to another cheaper show.

btw, the whole thing seems shady since the tickets were given to you.

She'll only be here until Sunday, and it's her first time in LA. :( I guess I could take her to MOCA (museum of contemporary art), LACMA or another museum instead, but still... :( :( :( She bought a new outfit for the awards show and everything. :(

I had a person e-mail and offer $800 cash for both tickets, and I called my sister to tell her the news...

Her: Hi, I can't wait to see you tonight!

Me: Me neither, I'm looking forward to seeing you and Mom this weekend... by the way, about the MTV movie awards...

Her: Oh yeah! I'm SO EXCITED! I can't wait to go... Mom and I even went shopping for an outfit for me to wear, and we found one on sale for only $60 today. It's a pink top, khaki capris, and matching pink sandals. I'm so happy you got the tickets!

Me: Um... (DOH!) ... yeah, me too... (*sees dollar signs rapidly disappearing*) You should have a lot of fun, it looks like it'll be a good show.

Her: I can't wait to eat all the refreshments. When the appetizer platter comes to me, I will take it and eat it all!

(my sister shares my affinity for food)

Me: Heh... okay, well have a safe flight and I'll see you and Mom tonight.


*sigh*

So... my little sister will be going to the awards show. My ex will be picking her up on Saturday at 6pm... he's excited about going too (theater major and all), and I hope they have fun and enjoy each other's company.


OMGWTFBBQ!! Geezus, how can you NOT trade these for Lakers tickets. Then sell those damn tickets and you can even send your mom and sis on a good vacation or buy them something nice.

But nope. Your sister and your dumb ex get to hang out with a bunch of groupies.

I'll admit, I'd love to go to the lakers game, but I did go to Game 5 of the wolves/lakers w/good seats. No offence to the lakers croud, but they aren't any more impressive this year than they were the last few. Payton and Malone, really don't add much to the excitement of watching them.

I'd take the cash and run if I were you though, 800 is enough to have some money and still get decent seats for the lakers, or so I would think.

Man, should have gotten those Lakers tickets.
So you could have gotten $800-$1000 and then all 3(mom and sis) of you could have done something together.
Its better than letting your sis and ex go while you and mom sacrifice.

Soul, eh? :p

My friend got someone to sign over their soul on a piece of paper. He's now in possession of a soul, don't ask why.

With the money you'd be getting, you can repay her for that dress and buy her a new one.

Update...

Gave up the box seats, sis and ex had a good time. She wanted to catch Tom Cruise's sunglasses and leather jacket when he threw them out into the audience, but she didn't... apparent highlights were the Beastie Boys performance and Christina Aguilera tripping on stage.

Guess it was worth it, she had a good time... I was surprised to hear the MTV people kept offering her and my ex champagne/beer/wine, though... no ID's required. Promoting underage drinking, not cool...

I don't think anyone would care much at a venue like that.
