So I set my alarm on my cell phone for 7 because I heard NDC would do an online release at 8 am Eastern on May 25th TLO. I wake up look at my cable box it says 11:03 am. I start to hope that I wake up again to the sound of my alarm ringing and hope I am able to say "whew thank god that it was only a dream that I woke up late and now that i've woken up for real it's only 7am and I still got a chance to cop the back toe 1's online and make it to work on time for 11:00 am!"
Unfortunately I was not able to say that. I had to deal with the reality that it was in fact REAL and not a dream that I had woke up late not only for the Black Toe 1 release but for work. I'm 2 hours away from my job so I didnt get to work until about 1:20pm even though I was supposed to be there 11:00am and late calls are not accepted. Luckily I told my supervisor the truth, didn't lose my job, and was able to work 7 hours for the day until 9pm.
I'm so upset at myself for setting the alarm for 7pm instead of 7am by mistake! Then again I checked the tweet and it looks like NDC tweeted the tweet for the Black Toe 1's at 5am so I probaly would have missed it anyway! Modern Notoriety is the article I read where it said NDC would release the Black Toe 1's 8am Eastern TLO. I guess I won't be going to that website EVER!
Well my birthday Is today (5/26) and would of really been happier if I was able to get a 9.5 for retail. I missed out on the Black/Gold OG Patent Leather 1's and now I miss a release the day b4 my birthday! This sucks! Someone help please. Anyone got information on where I can get a 9.5 for retail or a few dollars above retail please PM me. Thanks.
I'm dissapointed I missed this release but Congrats to all Who Copped!
damn bro im so sorry. waking up at the wrong time, especially for NDC, is my worst fear. but as a safety precaution, i ALWAYS make sure that i wake up at least 5-10 minutes before sneakers hit NDC and before i go to sleep the previous night, TRIPLE CHECK that my alarm is set to the right time and that my ringer is on. I havent had a problem with oversleeping in years because of this.
