Last night Joy and I had the pleasure of going to the dual-book realease party at Kuhl-Linscomb for Jonathan Adler’s two new books: Jonathan Adler on Happy Chic Color and Jonathan Adler on Happy Chich Accessorizing. Now let me explain how this post could have almost been titled PUKING ON JONATHAN ADLER.

We had such a fun time, Joy got the accessories book and a Tocca candle, and I got the color book and Davines Love Shampoo & Conditioner. While we were standing in line, waiting to meet Jonathan, I started to feel faint. I was wearing a wool sweater, blanket scarf, jeans and boots, and I could feel myself overheating. Then I got sweaty. Now I need to puke. There are probably only five people in front of us at this point, so I wanted to wait it out because I was THISCLOSE to meeting the design superstar. Three people in front of me. I’m about to die. I’m afraid I’ll puke all over Jonathan Adler. I tell Joy how I’m feeling so she takes my book and I make a mad dash for the ladies room. I puke two times, wash my hands, pat my face with a cold paper towel, and head back to the room where I left her to see that Joy is NEXTINLINE. I didn’t miss a thing. So I cut back into place and we got our books signed. DANG, that was close.

I asked Jonathan if he had any pull in keeping the Houston Co-Op alive, he had no idea it was closing and said Simon probably didn’t either—that all he did was make things pretty. I thought that was cute. He was very pleasant to chat with. Joy and I enjoyed ourselves.
