Ugh. The feeling when things which usually bring you pleasure do not. It is a horrible horrible feeling.
I believe this was around when i was introduced to Herriman’s work, both “Krazy Kat” and “Archy and Mehitabel” (which he did with Don Marquis). Both of them so lovely.
I remember when writing this period of time, I adored the character of Dije, but partly because he pushed bruno to new places. And then a time came where she needed to push back, and raise their relationship to a higher place.
As much as I might grind my teeth in the moment, sometimes I really like someone who won’t really listen to me, and pushes me in a good way.
Although I’m not sure where I would put Dije in that definition.
