#041 : CHAOTIC BEAUTY / CAROLINE-CALLOWAY SHAMBLES PART ONE
Original publication date: Mar 21, 2022
Good morning sexies! I am sitting here at 8:45 AM on my Italian sofa feeling...oily. My microwave short-circuited, you see, and I have been forced to actually cook, and it’s all so greasy—what you have to put in a pan to make things sizzle! I’m gagging just thinking about it.
A few notes before we begin:
-I like the charming and shambolic Ms. Caroline Calloway, the writer and crazy-ass performance artist.
-And I like CC in person. I feel an introvert's dread when I see her "in the wild"—because I know she's about to focus on me!—but then I relax, and I do like her.
-We're not close, but we're friendly. Caroline and I have done career Zooms and phone calls. We have a natural familiarity with one another that doesn't reflect the (minimal) actual time we've spent face-to-face.
Caroline has even met my mentally ill/shitty older sister— who used to “do PR” for Sally Hershberger Salon, and invited Caro in for baliage. She has been badgered by my sister's now-colleague—my loony ex—when he, too, went around online-harassing people he associated with me.
-That being said? I've kept my distance from CC the person because of the "bad attention" she gets. Also, I don't fully trust her.
