I watched Barbie. Or, rather, finished it tonight. Really enjoyed it. That could have been such a hollywood movie, y’all. It could have been pink and pretty and that’s it. But it wasn’t. It was thoughtful. It reached for some really, truly deep shit, and more often than not it grabbed it. The scene with the older woman on the bus stop bench in particular just—one of those surprise scenes that kind of takes your breath away. It wasn’t perfect, a lot of the magic was fast and loose, but everything it needed to do it did. I recommend it! (…though, I’m probably the last person on earth who hasn’t seen it at this point, lol)
Waking up this morning was hard. I did it half an hour late, and I didn’t get in my third hour of writing…but I’ll do better tomorrow.
Night night.
