ear-infected, fun-filled Saturday!

Saturday didn't go as planned.  I was amp'd to go the Nice Kicks grand opening but woke up Saturday morning with my ear feeling like it had been hit with a sledgehammer.  So I didn't get there early like I'd planned, in fact I got there an hour and a half after the official opening.  Got there and there was a line, probably 100 deep, in which I was at the back of.  Did I want to see the new store?...yes.  Did I want to wait an hour to see it? NAH!



So, while waiting for the line to dwindle, the crew and I [JoJo, DJ and Vanessa, whom I have affectionately and official dubbed "The League of Nations"] hit Buffalo Exchange and then Terra Burger for organic nourishment! 


1000 Island burger with french and sweet potato fries!

Finally made it back to the store and to be honest I was thoroughly disappointed.  First of all, I was expecting it to be a "block party" type of event not a "let-a-few-folks-in-at-a-time" store opening.  Secondly, I was extememly surprised at how under-developed the store was.  There was a wall with about 20 kicks on, a rack with t-shirts on it and a DJ in the corner...that's it! 

Bun- B was in attendance!



BUN!

Later that night we hit up Oasis for drinks with some friends.  I'd never been to this place but have heard people talk about the view; it definitely lived up to the hype!




aww!
