Rollin through some Gangstas

As foretold yesterday and last night reached levels of supreme epicosity.

The day started innocently enough...BonBon and I wanted to hang out but we couldn't decide between the mall, the science museum, or the historical society (I'm not kidding). We decided that while it was a big risk the mall probably had fewest children and the most food options. For the most part we were right...until this pretty adorable toddler who had been laughing and running around near us while we were eating ice cream just sat down and started screaming. Then we left.


We went to UpSix which is one of our favorite vintage shops in town. Meghan was working and she told us to check out the new sneaker shop next door. We walked into sneaker heaven. It was the grand opening party and Bonni promptly won a pair of kicks and I scored a t. I also purchased some new sneaks...they will be debuted when all this snow melts. Anyway...below is a picture of the millenium falcon that Meghan has in the shop. I'm pretty jealous.



We then went to the liquor store and met Rocco. I normally don't like small dogs, but this one just sits on top of the counter and acts adorable. Then his owner convinced us to by a giant bottle of champagne (see below). I think it's some sort of trick...

Bonni and Jumbo. Bonni & Kyle's record collection. If they both die it's bequeathed to me.

Still life. Or a party's about to pop.

I'm not trying to brag...but I took that down one handed...

and then it took me down.

JC or Laurie? you decide.

Bonnilicious and I met up with folks...and then we collectively met up with more folks at the Red Stag Supper Club. I heart the Lambrusco. Sparkling reds are so underrated.

I love night time shots of lights...and the Hennepin Ave Bridge makes a great subject.

Then things got real. We hit TML at First Ave. I haven't been to Too Much Love in quite a while...I've been sorely disapointed in the crowd the past few months (yes - I am a snob - and i don't like to hang out with 18-21 year olds). There are very few exceptions to that rule...and since TML is 18+ it can be whacked out at times. Last night there were some whacked out under-agers...but I think we rolled with a deep enough crowd that it didn't bother me.

Little E and Cynth showing love at the Love.

Big T. Who is neither big, nor the weirdest dancer in the room.

I thought if I took a photo of this dude while he was trying to "dance up on me" (as the kids say) he would get embarrassed and stop. He didn't.

I have no idea what Laurie was pointing at...all I know is that it distracted me from noticing this chicks jacket until I was looking through photos. Thank you Sam for snapping this flick...Priceless.

I absolutly love taking photos of people making out. You might not be able to see it - but these two both had big X marks on their hands. Of course they did. Also - she noticed I was taking pictures of them - so she grabbed his hat, put it on, and covered her face.
Do you think she's had this happen before?

The dude in the pink wins the award for most energy last night. Hands down.

This is why I shouldn't drink enormous bottles of champagne. Someone starts to finger-bang.

And then it becomes a threesome. Before you know it - someone is going to lose an eye.
