over the weekend a graffiti/street art exhibit opened at 11 spring street in soho. the show was only open for three days. adrianne and i went on the last day, sunday. when we got in line we were almost three blocks away from the entrance. after about an hour in line someone with the exhibit instructed that everyone after a point about 50 feet in front of us in line was unlikely to get in. since i wouldn't be able to photograph the art inside the building, i chose to document some of the many cool sneakers worn by those in line. i hope you enjoy the set.

holiday bon soiree

look at us! we are adorable when we get all cleaned up and ready to attend the holiday bash of the season. then, of course, we get our grubby little hands on the gingerbread men/stars of david and chocolate chip cookies and things get a little silly.

then we get our hands on the eggnog, manhattans, and coors king cans...and things get a little messy.

wow. what a party. thanks go to adrianne for the delicious gingerbread men, and a big thanks go to mark and sara for hosting.

party crash!

adrianne scored two tickets to cablevision's "holiday rock & roll bash 6" last night. this was the cablevision company holiday party and they go all out for their party. and adrianne and i were glad to take advantage of james dolan's largesse.

upon entering the b.b. king blues club in times square we checked our coats and immediately hit the open bar for beers and glenlivet. hell yeah free glenlivet! we then walked over to get our picture taken with a couple of rockettes (above), awesome. we got in line for the dinner buffet and piled our plates with mac and cheese, salmon, and fillet. after finishing dinner a group of 14 rockettes walked out and performed a short routine with high kicks and all. rad!

we then started through the crowd in front of the stage when i saw isiah thomas! i got a picture of him and me that will be uploaded later. we continued through the party, hit the bar again, got a second picture with the rockettes, ran into james dolan and got a picture with him and his wife. then it was off to the dessert buffet where we helped ourselves to a variety of treats.

after deciding it was time to go we headed off to the coat check where we were given gift bags that included a shoulder bag and insulated coffee cup. hell yeah swag! what a great night. thanks, adri.

Update: here's that photo of me and isiah.
