"Remember what the Tin Man says when Dorothy gets ready to depart? “Now I know I have a heart because it’s breaking.” It’s such a weird thing he wished for as the lows can become so destructive that they can overshadow the prospects of the highs, at least when you begin engaging in romantic endeavors. During the worst times, it makes the heart just seem like defective merchandise. God, writing this reminds me of one bout after some girl trouble in high school. I had blankets on the window and just played Velvet Underground’s “Heroin” on repeat while staring away into my manufactured gloaming. It was a Saturday, so friends started dropping by (my house was the “hang-out” house). Two of them were of a similar temper and wound up falling into the sad-sack quicksand of my gloom. Another buddy dropped by 30 minutes later, burst in and rescued us against our protests. He turned off the CD player, yanked the blanket off the window, and then forced us all to get lunch at the Little Red Dog House Albany, Georgia's premier hot dog establishment (I was not a fan of Jimmie's)."
