laura visits


Laura Sosin (aka "Special Sos") was in town visiting from Los Angeles and Grant had some of his goddamned Limey friends in from "across the pond." We headed out in the East Village to flash our gang signs (repping our various crizzews, y'all) and have some drinks.

Laura lives in LA, but she's actually a friggin' Canuck! Here she is repping Toronto with what is clearly a ML (maple leaf) gangsign. ˆ laura ˆ gang signs ˆ

I wear a lot of navy-colored clothes to troe off the 5-0 in my hood...but when it comes down to it, Diana and me gotta keep it real, y'all. ˆ me ˆ gang signs ˆ

The day after my mom's birthday, she and my dad came into New York and I took them out to a fancy restaurant for an uptown birthday dinner! ˆ dad ˆ mom ˆ birthday ˆ cake ˆ

Okay, this pic is from a few weeks earlier when Laura was in town for "The Rules of Attraction" premeire...but it's the greatest picture ever and I didn't include it earlier so here it is. ˆ laura ˆ me ˆ best ˆ pretty ˆ tongue ˆ
