the mean reds

"Listen...you know those days when you get the mean reds?" --Holly
"The mean reds? You mean like the blues?" --Paul
"No... the blues are because you're getting fat or because it's been raining too long. You're just sad, that's all. The mean reds are horrible. Suddenly you're afraid and you don't know what you're afraid of. Do you ever get that feeling?" --Holly
"Sure." --Paul
"When I get it the only thing that does any good is to jump into a cab and go to Tiffany's. Calms me down right away." --Holly (from "Breakfast at Tiffany's")


when i get the mean reds, i either sit and write/read at a nearby coffee bean & tea leaf or lose myself in fully booked or powerbooks.

i had the mean reds again last night. this has got to stop.
