To Darrin Hudson: RAINY DAYS & SUNDAYS...

About Me

Name: jeffstaple

Location: New York, New York, United States

I think everyone had a "Darrin Hudson" in their lives. Darrin Hudson was in my high school, back in Marlboro, NJ. You know, that person that you had to one-up all the time. Didn't matter what it was: Gear, hair, grades, sports, whatever...it was ON. Well for Darrin and I...it was kicks. Plain and simple. Oddly enough, in a school with over 1000 kids, me and him were the only 2 really into sneakers back then. This is my blog dedicated to Darrin. This is to tell Darrin that I'm still out there, and if he wants to battle, here it is son!! Bring it!! I've since lost touch with Darrin, but thanks to him, you all get to check out the kicks I have amassed over the years. So it is here, that I will archive every pair of shoes I own. It’ll include detailed photos, a grading system, a little tidbit behind each one and every single one will be available for purchase. (Simply POST A COMMENT with your offer). Some other little goodies sprinkled throughout also. Even if I updated a different shoe every week, it would take me about 3 years to complete this project. So sit back and enjoy! The project begins January 1st, 2006...

RAINY DAYS & SUNDAYS...

...always get me up.
I really love rainy overcast days. I don't know why...I just do. Waking up to the sound of rain hitting the NYC pavements and cabs splashing thru is music to my ears.

20mph winds. 5 inches of rain in one day. 39°F. You gotta love spring in NYC .

Thanks to my new found Graniph friends for bringing me this souvenir from Japan. It's a Mickey Mouse x Zeebra collaboration marker...complete with Mickey ears on the cap. I love it when I get just the perfect gift from new friends. Thanks!
