miranda july has always made me feel so comfortable in how alien i am. in her absurdism do i find wonder in life. in her humor does reality calm itself to something manageable. i'm just trying to manage life. manage it well, manage it the way my parents seem to have effortlessly done so. what am i missing? what am i proving to them or myself? do you know where i can find stability? please, tell me where it is, please. pretty please?
