Case of the mean reds
Holly Golightly: You know those days when you get the mean reds?
Paul Varjak: The mean reds, you mean like the blues?
Holly Golightly: No. The blues are because you’re getting fat and maybe 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?
-Breakfast at Tiffany’s
I’ve got it bad —the mean reds that is. I’ve had them for a while, they just won’t seem to go away. When I caught them during my last semester of college (last January) I thought for sure that graduating would be the right cure. Apparently I was wrong because I still have the dreaded disease.
In other news…After totaling my car in a parking lot (read earlier post) I have finally managed to buy a new car. I wanted to find something reliable, fuel-efficient and environmental friendly. I ended up getting a Toyota Yaris sedan. I love it! I’ve only had it for about a week, but I think we are goin to be together for a long time.
