ismoLast night I actually slept for a change. Sleep doesn't fix everything, but it makes most things feel a whole lot better. I dreamed that I was with my mother, and she was young enough to go swimming again, and we were floating down a shallow, sandy river toward the lake. The water was sun-warmed, and everything was beautiful.
I got a haircut. At this point, the stylist is like a friend, and it's always nice to see her and chat. Tonight, we went to see "Justice League." I really liked it. I'm not sure why so many people didn't. Admittedly, I got a bit bored with the blowing-up-swarms-of-enemies battle at the end, but I always do. I've just seen too many of them. It was well done for what it was. As the movie opened, I thought, "Oh jeez, here we are back in dark, gritty, grim Gotham City, and I don't know if I really want to be here." But, given that Superman had recently died, the darkness seemed appropriate, and soon I was really into it. Things that were dark, and sad, and broken. A sense of things ending. Perhaps it just suited my mood. And there was hope at the end . . . . I really don't know why people have been so meh about this movie. I liked it much more than I expected to. Just to see Wonder Woman again made it all worthwhile. Wonder Woman, Alfred, and the Flash were my favorite parts . . . um, Wonder Woman, Alfred, the Flash, and Aquaman . . . uhhh . . . . And Big Blue standing in wonder amid the alien corn . . . . Yes, there were quite a few moments. You know, sadness is something I'm used to. It's hope that breaks your heart. . . .
