PIZZA, COKES & A GOOD TIME!
So last Friday, Fur Face Boy super fan, Brandon Mitchell twittered me saying that he wanted to meet me at Centre as he purchased his first Fur Face Boy shirt. I never arranged to meet him, but I did let him know that I may stop by since I was going to be nearby at the Kidrobot Grand Opening. I never met up with him. When I got home from the Kidrobot madness, I checked my twitter account to find that Brandon was pretty dissapointed that I didn't stop by (even though again, I never arranged to meet him).
I started to feel bad that I dissapointed a fan, so to make it up to Brandon, I invited him, his dad and whoever else in his family to meet me last night at Vapiano for pizza, cokes and a good time! All compliments of THE Fur Face Boy, of course! Along with Brandon and his dad was his sister, Chelsea. Right from the get go we all got along and shared stories that ranged from broken bones, Shel Silverstein's The Giving Tree, bootleg NYC Chinatown movies, algebra, Sponge Bob, subliminal Disney movie messages as well as getting to know each other.
After alot of laughs, smiles and 2 whole pizzas, we all stopped by my car so that I could give a couple of FFB shirts to both Brandon and Chelsea! As always, it was a good feeling to see how excited people get when they get a FFB shirt! Sorry, I didn't have any shirts for dad. (Insert audience track: BOooOoOooOoooooooo...)
Brandon, Chelsea AND dad (Chuck) were all very cool people! Dad's a carpenter and his favorite beer of choice is Shiner Bock. I kept pushing for him to be in a picture, but he wouldn't budge - hmmm...must be the dad in him. Chelsea is about to enter another semester of college and made it loud and clear that she's going to be a future 2nd grade (and ONLY 2nd grade!) teacher. As for Brandon, he's just hoping that he doesn't wake up at 11:30 am today - that's considered too early for him.
