Iβve tried that. Iβve tried aspirin, too. Rusty thinks I should smoke marijuana, and I did for a while, but it only makes me giggle. What Iβve found does the most good is just to get into a taxi and go to Tiffanyβs. It calms me down right away, the quietness and the proud look of it; nothing very bad could happen to you there, not with those kind men in their nice suits, and that lovely smell of silver and alligator wallets. If I could find a real-life place that made me feel like Tiffanyβs, then Iβd buy some furniture and give the cat a name.
