I overheard the most interesting (shouted) conversation on the bus tonight.

"I used to take uppers, then downers, then uppers, then downers until I got into that groove but OHHHH, let me tell you: opium works."

--A young, blond girl, seventeen or twenty, with two of her young, blond friends, freaking out, talking about how crazy her guy friends were, about how her young, blond friends thought she would be the only one who could handle this craaaaazy guy they knew. Standard stuff.

So later, they're talking about some depression screening a mutual friend went to. Telling each other what their personalities were like--"I'm sooooo extreme just happy and sad all the time"--when the first girl says,

"My personality is--I think I would get depressed, but I have a relationship with God?"

"Ohhhhhh," her friends chimed in unison.

"I have this relationship with God, so it makes me feel OK."
