HAPPY NEW YEAR LEAKS

Hope your days were merry and blissful regardless of what ever you celebrate.

My holidays were really good. I took a road trip to Ohio to spend the holidays with the extended family. Lots of quality time with my new 2 year old adopted sister, Shyla. Cute as a button!!!

TODAY IS MY BIRTH DATE!!!!!
This may be my best birth date yet...
I am one of the many people whose birth date falls within the 30 day credit card billing cycle of the biggest gift giving holiday of the year. Usually family and friends arbitrate gift giving especially this year given the weak economy.
Though in my old age I have pretty much forgotten about recieving and focus more on giving, which I enjoy the most. Plus, I have the most adorable little cousins and nephews and now sister so it is great to see them enjoy such a special holiday. Plus I love to play with kids' toys...

With all this intact, I have developed a reckless ambition on my birth day. I do and buy every little thing my heart and mind desire. For the past 2 weeks, I have been secretly celebrating and prepping for today. Secretly because my birth day is a personal time of reflection and joy. I'm not into the big parties and stuff, I prefer to spend it alone with CASH. Cash Money.... good guy to know in these days..hint hint!!

I usually set new years resolutions but I do them on my birthday instead.

1) I will act/dress my age a bit more this year... i.e. possibly pointy shoes mmmm nah maybe not. I'll give that 2 more years. I tried a pair of Opening Ceremony leather shoes..So nice but OUCH!! I have flat feet, I couldn't get myself to spend $200+ on pain.
A couple things I will have to retire for sure. This year is the end of the NIKE SB age. Every year my taste in shoes becomes maybe bland or refined in my eyes.
I was really feeling these A.P.C. shoes from the Surplus store in Willaimsburg for 50% off. Say word...
The Visvim too ..(unfortunately not 50% off)..






The Visvim Fall/Winter 2008-2009 lookbook titled "Cubism"


Given this feeling, I felt like I need to share something that I had with everyone. I know you can see all this everywhere but if not charge this one to the house. NIKE SB SUMMER 2009....





















Nothing really exciting but maybe you see something I don't. Word is that all there was a lot of section switches through the company design teams of NIKE 6.0. and NIKE SB. That makes sense to me because I have seen some rather clean NIKE 6.0 and the SB section has been/became rather gimmicky...with all due respect of course..

2)I have to run to agnes b. I notice they just opened. I will be back though. Here something from me to you.


Pop something, roll something, kick back and relax on me...
Been a hard yet wonderful year. So happy to be breathing at this rate..
