If you're drivin' into town with a dark cloud above you // Dial in the number who's bound to love you

Have you seen Psycho lately ?? I had to throw in an all-nighter today for blasted Speech class and I caught the last few minutes of it on TCM so after that I put it in and watched it twice through and I remembered that I forgot how crazy good it is. Like there is this scene after Norman Bates kills Marion Crane (the shower scene) and loads her into the car trunk and pushes it into that swamp pond and it slowly sinks and he is eating nuts and it stops sinking at like 2/3 the way down and he just has this insane nervous look about him, then just as he looks around it starts sinking again and he cracks this 1/2 sec smile in the left corner of his mouth that is the devil. And I watched the last scene after the mystery has been unraveled and he is sitting with a blanked wrapped around him and he as the Mother character has an internal dialogue and at the end of it with his head down and eyes looking up, gives the most demented and frightening look ever!!! I love the arguments Norman and his mother have back and forth as the same human being the split personality and how the Mother finally dominates him and destroys Norman's ego. Don't we all have someone else rattling around in our head you know? A good half dozen in this cranium I'm thinking. Got 'The Most Gigantic Lying Mouth of All Time', if you've seen the movie 'The Ring' it's basically 24 videos like the one in 'The Ring'. For a journal entry in Speech, we had to write about someone that we knew that went along with 'The Stages of Relational Development' chart (basically a step pyramid going up and down, up being stuff like initiation, experimenting etc, the top being bonding and the down stagnating, avoiding and finally terminating) and since I haven't had anybody like that before, I had to make up the page worth of analization. I decided that we met a few years ago when a friend of mine brought his g/f and her friend, and I talked to her friend "wingman" style and found that I liked her a lot, so we talked and after a while parted, and we met up a few times again and again and soon we talked on the phone often, seeing films and everyone telling us that we are dating and us being the last to really see it and then we have these special moments where we're in a bubble almost and it's like we have these secrets and places and moments that nobody can take away or understand no matter what. Then H.S. finishes and our College/Work schedules change and we don't get to see each other as much and when we do, we feel like we have to make up for it all and it comes out pressured and forced and it feels fake so we slowly see each other less and less as things come apart and finally we think "maybe it's best if we are just friends". I really did have to pause 'Psycho' for a minute because it made me sad, but I eventually came to thinking that I was happy that I ever got to have such a great fake relationship in the first place, and I wished her all the best. Well me and my 5 other personalities agree that we need sleep.
