Moon River.

Ok so I have always loved “Breakfast at Tiffany’s”.

I’ve always loved “Moon River” and the way Audrey Hepburn looks and talks and IS as Holly Golightly.

But this weekend, when we were snowed in, I fell in love all over again.

I think its the first time that I’ve seen it in its entirety.

And now I kind of want to be her. Minus the relationship hangups and plus Jesus.

Holly makes the crazy, disheveled, wild, unorganized life of a single woman look both hysterical and glamorous.

But also real.

And it made me feel much better about my crazy, disheveled unorganized life.

Some favorite nuggets:

Holly Golightly: I’ll tell you one thing, Fred, darling… I’d marry you for your money in a minute. Would you marry me for my money?
Paul: In a minute.
Holly Golightly: I guess it’s pretty lucky neither of us is rich, huh?
Paul: Yeah

Holly Golightly: You know those days when you get the mean reds?
Paul: The mean reds, you mean like the blues?
Holly Golightly: No. The blues are because you’re getting fat and maybe it’s been raining too long, you’re just sad that’s all. The mean reds are horrible. Suddenly you’re afraid and you don’t know what you’re afraid of. Do you ever get that feeling?

Paul Varjak: Holly, you’re drunk.
Holly Golightly: True.

Holly Golightly: It’s useful being top banana in the shock department

Holly Golightly: I’ll never get used to anything.  Anybody that does, they might as well be dead.

Holly Golightly: Certain shades of limelight wreck a girl’s complexion.

Holly Golightly: Love should be allowed. I’m all for it. Now that I’ve got a pretty good idea what it is.

Plus, don’t even MAKE me talk about her wardrobe. Flawless.

Listening to: Have I told you lately how amazing of a whistler I am? Well I am.

On my mind: I want the job of coming up with the nonsensical words that you have to type in to get into a secure site. My first one would be: quablestur.
