Re: "They're Watching Me."
Geez Chris, really heartwrenching this one is. A few things really struck me and made this one haunting and beautiful. First, the way you said the color of the mug would never be forgotten, well memories are like that... memorizing everything, associating objects with a certain snippet of time and knowing each time you reach for that thing you will be thrown back into that moment. And then, the thoughts of the nightmares as a child that seem to parallel the state Ambrose can't get out of as an adult. Mental disorders are very consistent in causing regression of the mind, to child like thoughts or states. This is terribly tragic, and you captured the toll something like this really does take on a family brilliantly. Really, I was impressed with the reality in this one.
