These are the oftentimes tumbled thoughts of a bipolar mind going through rapid cycling. You have no idea what it is like to try to think while your thoughts are racing and your opinions are changing as they are being formed. But some of this is just life, depression,anger at being misunderstood and discriminated against, or maybe it's just the medicine or I've just really lost my grip!

The Fog in My Brain & The Lady in the Red Coat




And there goes the lady in the red coat who always rolls her socks exactly twice and twines that single braid round her head like a chignon fastened with two sticks.She dons a contagious smile that will surely pass from face to face as she greets the A.M. crowd. She is a mysterious one. Only seen passing by in the morning. It’s almost as if she disappears into thin air once she turns the corner by the gray walls of the bank building and heads toward the beach. But surely not with those 4" heels. She must stop somewhere before the beach. Whenever I see her I’m soon off in a reverie imagining all exciting adventures and splendors of the lady in the red coat. And I am she.

..Meantime what has walked through the door but the most gregarious, good looking, -- get a sensation in the stomach - gorgeous hunk of a man that I have ever viewed. "Mornin'" in a smooth baritone voice. Dark, almost black hair... there goes my first weakness. and when he raises his head it's direct eye-to-eye contact. The kind that leaves you as vulnerable as if you were stripped down to nothing and he could see right through you.

Green like the leaf of a willow. His eyes. They are a most unusual shade of green. They take me in, all the way. Almost speechless, I utter, "Oh those eyes" while thinking "They are likely going to get me into trouble."

Excuse me for staring, but you have the most unusual and beautiful red hair I''ve ever encountered.. Allow me to introduce myself...Timothy Higgins. I'm new in the condominiums and the handbook recommended this "Coffee Shoppe" as being close and having a wide assortment of coffees. Do you find it so?"

And then the fog lifted in my brain and my daughter tugged my hand "Mommy, do you mind it soo -- the rain? Why are you staring over at that coffee shop? We'd better hurry home, we're getting drenched in this downpour
