Quilting bee

JOURNAL ENTRY :: July 24, 2018

Saw ‘Sorry To Bother You’ last night - holy cow! I did not expect it to get so weird. Hats off to Boots for realizing such a specific and strange vision.

Met Max for coffee except neither of us had coffee. Had a good talk about what it all means. Summary: nobody knows what they’re doing.

Lean into the fact that it’s hard sometimes. Punishing. Like football practice. Suit up. You’re going to take some hits. This isn’t a quilting bee.

Reading John Cheever’s journals. He was so tortured. He writes so rapturously about nature, literature, love, then the pendulum swings hard to despair and self loathing. Poor guy.
