06/15/2005: "I want to just pick up and go to Europe too..."

Song of the Day: Backstreet Boys - Climbing The Walls

Thing that drives me nuts #1724: The way Matt seems to think going on exotic vacations is no big deal. He's currently in Europe, and I only discovered this when he casually mentioned it in the middle of a conversation about his ex-girlfriend. If I got to go to Europe, I'd be screaming it at the top of my lungs to everyone I know. His laid-back attitude about it reminds me of a conversation we had about a year ago:

Matt: (talking about a girl he was hitting on) "So I told her that I would call her when I got back from Iceland."
Me: "Matthew! That's awful. Surely she saw right through that. Iceland, of all places?"
Matt: "No, I really am going to Iceland next week."
Me: "...Oh."

How was I supposed to know? It sounded like some bizarre "I have to wash my hair tonight" excuse. Maybe I'm just too cynical.
