Today's Mood

.

Ricky Fitts (Wes Bentley),
American Beauty

"It was one of those days when it's a minute away from snowing and there's this electricity in the air, you can almost hear it. And this bag was, like, dancing with me. Like a little kid begging me to play with it. For fifteen minutes. And that's the day I knew there was this entire life behind things, and... this incredibly benevolent force, that wanted me to know there was no reason to be afraid, ever. Video's a poor excuse, I know. But it helps me remember... and I need to remember... Sometimes there's so much beauty in the world I feel like I can't take it, like my heart's going to cave in. "

Ah, sweet, fucked-up Ricky Fitts! I confess I had a little crush on his creepy ass. I know just how you feel, Ricky my dear, especially when I've spent the entire weekend looking at pictures and movies of Jake. *sigh*
