I think that I can identify best with Lester's wife, Carolyn. I remember that scene in which she was spotlessly cleaning a home in preparation for an Open House. Well, I can be the same way when my husband or my adult children announce that they are bringing company home. I go nuts with picking up everything in sight and quickly cleaning the "high spots", as my mother used to call it. Like Carolyn, I can get sooo wound up that I just scream to relieve the tension. But there are many more ways in which I'm NOT like Carolyn. Thank goodness! lol

hmmm...maybe Wes Bentley's character, Ricky Fitts. Well minus the plastic sack bit and being a drug dealer. My parents were a bit like his, just backwards (Mom was controling and Dad wasn't connected). I don't care much about what others think and always done my own thing. Always looked at a bit funny by outsiders.

i really identify with ricky fitts.
i remember feeling so disconnected from the world, yet so totally in touch with the soul of everyone & everything in it.
for example, i would want to have these deep conversations with people, but all everyone every wanted to do was make small talk.
but even though no one ever wanted to let me in, i would see past their exterior and right into their very core, and that is when i discovered that many people are disfigured--not ugly, because poeple are not born ugly; things happen to them that make them scarred & bitter.
seeing that pain in random people made me feel close to them, and i understood that most people are damaged, like me...we're all alike.
ricky was a damaged soul, but he did not let the negative occurances in his life turn him into a barren individual like his father. instead, ricky took the bad things and make them into something positive, and that's what i do in my life, too :)
