took me about 5 minutes..
we didn’t hide colored eggs for the kids. we got them up, dressed and headed out to LA. our first stop was at Yoshinoya on the corner of melrose & vermont. 
mmm yummy easter lunch! after that we cruised on melrose to see what stores were open, nothing really caught our eye so we headed up to sunset to hit Meltdown. they changed the layout since we last visited months ago and i prefer it so much more. it’s much roomier and you can see the displays better. the kids had fun playing on the rodys. C & i picked up the hi-fructose box set. it’s a beauty. the 5 prints alone are worth the cost ($39.95) – i’m planning on doing a review in the next couple weeks. 2 things were depressing: looks like the secret base display cabinet is gone?! and that i didn’t have crazy money to blow.
but what we really went to LA for is SCOOPS. turns out they were closed which we kinda expected. it’s ok, they deserve a holiday lol not wanting to go back home we went to check out the idiot box show at gallery 1988. it was a really good show. all the pieces were fantastic!!!

i haven’t done black friday in years. mostly because it used to be my mama and me and well, she’s in texas still lol hurry your ass home already woman!
when C got home from work, we ventured out to LA because i wanted to check out SURU’s sale. they opened at noon and we got there at around 1220pm. there were 2 huge bins of $5 t-shirts and all other apparel was 50% OFF. toys & books were 20% OFF. i was trying to take pictures of AXIS’s first solo show: welcome to my nightmare but the shop started to get crowded. not quite sure who the male employee was but he was AWESOME. he took me to the back, out the back door and showed me AXIS pieces on the back of the store walls. he was real good people, i’d even go as far as to say one of the best i’ve ever come across in any shop in the hollyhood area. a few minutes later i see joe hahn (linkin park member and owner of SURU) talking with some shopper. i didn’t fangirl out but i was dying to ask about his personal art collection, more specifically his usugrow wall. so anyways, BIG BIG UPS to SURU, that’s how you do it. and AXIS, EXCELLENT show. don’t miss it people.
