I'm going to interrupt my own election-day doomscrolling to share some recent sheer happiness: this past weekend I was super fortunate to do a 3-day workshop at @como.artspace with the INCREDIBLY talented and amazing @davidemittadams It was truly an absolute privilege to learn from such a knowledgeable and talented artist—and all around delightful human being!! (Also shoutout to the phenomenal @claireawarden !!) I feel so grateful to have had this life-changingly fantastic experience (and FINALLYYY fulfilling a very longheld goal/dream/bucket list item), and I only cried a little.🥲 I can't wait to do more!!!🖤
Today = thirty-eight! This past year was brutal. Deaths, traumas, debilitating medical issues... but like the great work of poetry, "Tubthumping," once said: I get knocked down, but I get up again.✌️(In fact, I keep coming back like a bad rash.💅) Thanks to my amazing other half and my tribe of absolute fucking weirdos (and my Radiohead-loving therapist lol), I'm able to enter this next journey around the sun with joy returned to my heart. (Plus a new crop of wrinkles.) (Also my continued inability to take anything all that seriously.) Thanks for the love and support, my peeps!!🖤🖤🖤
This wasn't intentional, but passing around a disposable camera lately resulted in an accidental photo essay of Susie With Some Of Her Favorite Things: deviled eggs 🤤🤤, my absolutely amazing sister-in-law❤️❤️, cauliflower rice 👌, my daddio!❤️❤️ Love you all! (But especially the deviled eggs)
20 years ago today, Eric and I kissed for the first time—and two friends stopped being just friends. So to celebrate our 20-year anniversary, enjoy some clips from 2004... and a bunch of others from the past TWO DECADES. (As for how I feel about that frighteningly long passage of time, I leave it to Sue and Eric at the end of this video.)
@me1odrameric , my better half, my center, my everything, I'll just say this: I love you. Revy Chum so. More than could ever possibly be confined to a stupid Instagram post. Thank you for loving me. Thank you for choosing me. Thank you for laughing with me every damn day for 20 years (and counting). And no matter what, come what may, never forget: "what happened out there is perfectly legal ✨️in this country✨️"😌❤️❤️❤️
