You Betcha

When Brandon and I have a disagreement 9 times out of 10 I'll turn it into a bet.

{I also argue that 9 times out of 10 I win the bet, I'd even bet on it.}

Tonight's bet?

Was Matthew Mcconaughey in Sweet Home Alabama?*

Brandon claimed that he was.

I knew that he wasn't.

{This bet came to be because I started singing "You're So Vain" at Brandon and asked him to name the movie that it was sung in and the actors who sang it.

His answer? Sweet Home Alabama. Reese Witherspoon and Matthew Mcconaughey(whose name we will shorten to "M.M." because he has quite the last name. Google had to help me spell it).

I told him that it was How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days with Kate Hudson and M.M.

He told me Kate Hudson and Reese are the same person and that M.M. was in both movies.}

Looking back, I should have raised the stakes so much higher.

That said, I won myself a new book (my winnings range anywhere from frozen yogurt to a new article of clothing, whatever strikes my fancy at the time of our ever official handshake).

The boy should never bet against me on a pop culture subject!

But we won't tell him that. :)

*M.M. was not in Sweet Home Alabama. It was that cute guy who looks an awful lot like Ryan Gosling but isn't- Josh Lucas.
