depression is different than the blues.

if you ever talk to me about how i have the blues when i am depressed, i will likely go off and cry, and then put your name on a list of people whose butts i will kick to somewhere up between their ears if i ever am not depressed again.

the odds on which are pretty good, by the way. i've been seriously depressed twice in my life so far. and i've gotten better both times.
