As Good As It Gets

Sun Aug 8, 2004, 8:18 PM
Right so I have this story. Its kinda dumb, not very long nor interesting, but its a story none the less. Four years ago I entered into StFX. Before I came I used a very tepid and silly service called "Ratemyface". I got into a discussion with someone on there, and the event I call the "As good as it Gets" phenomenon begins to occour.

Its simple really. I had always seen As good as it gets, the WHOLE movie, save for the ending. I never did get to see it! Not once! It pissed me off, I loved the film, it was alwyas on, but not once did i finish it.

Tis went on for a while, now move ahead to the summer before second year. Just before I arrive, while in my aunts house, and myself back on RMF; I meet someone who gets the things back in my head. This person was Marcy, but our friendship lasted all of a month, so theres nothig important there. BUT, the AGAIG's effect was brought up that night. YES!

You see it was on then, so I watched it, but in talking to Marcy, I missed the ending again. She seemed to think it was funny, and converstation went from there.

Jump aheada few months, dating Ilona, even further, running away from Ilona.

On the last day before I left her for good (Note, I was already home, I mean vamoosing from that relationship), As good as it gets was on again. I watched it, this time till the end.

It took over 3 years for me to realize I had seen it to the end. Yes thats right, I watched the movie, seen the ending, and never realized THAT was the ending. I either looked away for a minute, got distracted or was just too damn stupid to realize. And thusly the next day I left her, went through hell, etc etc. You all know the drill.

So now the funny thing is; I was sitting down, having my monthly "I feel sorry for myself" night, watching, you guessed it, AGAIG. Of course, i once again say it to the end, sat there and thought to myself "Damn, missed the end again".

It took me till a few min ago to realize how dumb I am.

I wonder if this is supposed to be some sort of cycle?

I used to have my work up a while ago; but I no longer really use devart now. Just the occasional peek for inspiration and such
:iconwhelming:
wow! i didn't really clue in with that first message as to who this was. i'm a little more on-the-ball this morning, so I was like " guidedbyvoices=bethorton=flowers=bernard holyshit!"

trust me, even i don't know how those connections made it in that order.

i want to be the first to appologise for the 'falling out'. I was in a relationship with someone I really didn't want to be with at all (I finally left him the August just passing) so i was an emotional train wreck.

toss me a message back.
