it’s jim day! my life is spent in a perpetual state of side-splitting laughter because of jim. nobody is more gentle, insightful, or down for the bit (see slide 6 dressed as harry hamlin so i could really sell my lisa rinna costume and slide 12 where i gathered what i deemed to be every cute thing in the house and made him hold it all at once). jim is a safe place for every person in any room, the chillest guy at any given function, and has won the hearts of even my most dubious friends and family members with an ease i can only liken to doing a layup while playing basketball on a fisher price hoop against a toddler. happy birthday jimmy, i’m sorry that old person snapchat filter made me a super hot grandma and did you so dirty, i promise i’ll love you even if it is predictive (see slide 19). thank you for making life so wonderful ❤️

my dad’s store @eugene_choo opened its doors 25 years ago today. he started it with his sister, fiona and it’s one of my favourite places on earth, which i know sounds weird to say about a clothing store, but i’ve spent so many hours there that it’s really one of the places that raised me. as a toddler hiding under the desk and behind the clothes, as a kid doing my homework in an empty change room after school, as a teenager working every sunday (and definitely not hungover). i was lucky enough to be asked to write a special 25th anniversary newsletter for the store and i don’t think i could more concisely summarize what it means to me than i did there, so i’ll just put it here: I always say that while Eugene Choo is a store, it’s always felt like a home as well. A place where people pop in to chat in good times and bad, where three children were basically raised (much to their chagrin at the time), where friendships have been forged, art has been made and appreciated, parties have been thrown (shhhh, be cool), and at least two people have met the love of their life (not to brag, but we even have a Choo baby as a result). It’s a store made special, of course, by its very stylish contents, but more than that, it’s made special by every customer and staff member that’s crossed its threshold or lost their footing when there was that big hole in the floor for a couple of years. And while we no longer write our receipts by hand (thank god), some things never change — and that’s the importance of you, our community. For this, we say the biggest and most sincere thank you. congratulations @kildarecurtis, you’ve built something truly magical and i can’t wait to see what the next 25 years have in store ❤️ thanks so much @steven.brekelmans for this rad picture of all of us at the store in the very early days. we’re babies!

sometimes you’re running late for a birthday party with the understanding that while a gift might not be necessary, you’d feel like a shit friend if you don’t bring something. you scan your apartment. what could you possibly bring as a token? your eye lands on a large piece of citrus fruit on your counter, a pomelo to be exact, but you can’t just bring a loose pomelo to a party. absolutely not. you could, however dress that pomelo up a little bit, give her some light bondage ribbon and a pretty pink bow (for class). now she’s no longer a mere piece of large citrus fruit. no. she’s a dangerous woman (pomelo), a work of art, the belle of the citrus ball, and you, the michelangelo who lovingly crafted her (see slide 2). you bring her to the party, she’s a hit. then, tragedy strikes. her finery was not properly secured, you did not consider this catastrophe as a possibility. you try in vain to fix it (see slide 10). but some things (pomelos) are only meant to be beautiful for a fleeting moment. she fades back into citrus obscurity.
