Two things struck fear in my heart today. First,
this article in the Sunday Times Magazine by Edmund Andrews about his personal debt. I for one understood how his once solid, steady financial life spun out of control, and it was terrifying. Two, I saw a group of grown ups playing in Riverside park today. They were playing
Quidditch.
that andrews article was amazing. brave of him to write.
ReplyDeleteVery brave. I'd heard him on All Things Considered Friday afternoon and even then I couldn't believe it. It feels like a million years ago but probably about ten someone wrote an article in Harper's about going broke in New York on a six figure salary (I want to say it was Vince Pisarro, but isn't that a painter?).....then it was private school that was the culprit, which is its own form of cultural madness. The Andrews article resonated for me in the same way....like I couldn't believe someone was saying all that for all to see.....
