trippy picture, trippy music, trippy date today! so i burned a cd in celebration.

"Love should be allowed in. I'm all for it. Now that I"ve got a pretty good idea what it is. Because I do love Jose - I'd stop smoking if he asked me to. He's friendly, he can laugh me out of the mean reds, only I don't have them much anymore, except sometimes, and even then they're not so hideola that I gulp Seconal or have to haul myself to Tiffany's"

- Holly Golightly, Breakfast at Tiffany's

he melts away all my mean reds. i think everyone needs somebody to erase their mean reds. now i don't have real mean reds that much; only when they come i know he pulls me up from the quicksand of it all. belle and sebestian sings you know, If you find yourself caught in love Say a prayer to the man above and so a call, a cheerful connected laugh through the telephone and we meet at six. like they do in the movies - the big sweep in the arms and the crowd fades into a blur, passing extras for our scene. anyways, a feast at taka crystal jade la mian - herbal boiled chicken soup, deep fried man tou, chilli chicken stir fry, pork and cabbage DIY wrap in flour skins, and the souffle ball with banana and redbean paste and sugar powder. after dinner orchard road stroll took us laughing at funky elephant toys at the toy store, and complusory visits to borders and topshop. i say, birks are great but i need to get myself a pair of chic close toe flats, for those in between times. christmas present for me - that and a less harsh and quick temper. after an unnecessary tempest towards the mildest unissue issues, i get a bout of the mean reds.

so anyways, get up and go, the running, the swimming, those to-do belly trimming things.
