She made me feel like a degenerate. I’ll miss her.

Intro:

Alan Shore comes across this woman who has recently joined the firm. She is nicknamed The Squid. Now The Squid knows what she wants and gets it. Shore and Squid strike a deal wherein they meet every morning at 10 - IN THE CLOSET. And Shore comes out of these sessions with at times a black eye, at other times a cheekbone bruise. Squid is obviously one of those violently, kinky types. In the new season The Squid comes up to The Shore and tells him that she is leaving for New York. And he says: “this is it?” She turns around with a deadpan look (she always has a deadpan look) and says: “yes.” Pauses. “I’ll miss you.” Towards the end of a case Shore talks with this sex counselor who happens to be someone he consulted once and he tells her in his usual drawling, deliberate, whispering, soft as silk voice, “She made me feel like a ….. degenerate.” A long pause (he pauses a lot) “I’ll miss her.”

Outro:

Degenerate: debauched- unrestrained by convention or morality


Squid’s personality is like one of those, you know, crash-boom-bang-thank-you-very-much-leave-without-a-backward-glance types. And Shore is a total womanizer. Hence, when Shore exhibited an obvious disappointment in not having the chance to feel like a degenerate anymore I started wondering:

1. Is it only about sex?
2. Or is it the connect that he felt with Squid which went beyond all conventional levels of morality and inhibitions?

I’d like to think that it was the second one. And I think that it is incredibly amazing to find someone whom you can be uninhibited with. At each and every level and type of interaction. Though I would like to add that with Shore even the second possibility would ultimately boil down to sex.

In the closet? How can it ever be comfortable there? :D


'And I think that it is incredibly amazing to find someone whom you can be uninhibited with.' - I agree. But again don't ever make the mistake of thinking that the only time one can be like this has to do anything with love or the person whom you love.

i think you are struck with KYD that is why you deleted your blog and yes i know everything

Preeti said...

Still.. in the closet...other equally cramped places...woman, dont get me started...

i totally agree with you...it has nothing to do with love. it is just a sheer compatibility. you must have noticed that i have mentioned "at each and every level and type of interaction"...so it is something that could be shared with anyone...

Preeti said...

Shankar,

KYD is the operative word...
but i dont suffer from chronic KYD. just selective KYD...

and you @#$%^&* ... you know everything hence you are like this...pain !!! hmph!!!

Hmm, so far, this blog does not seem to be about yoga in general or padmasana in particular.

Neither does it say how my life is pathetic and yours perfect.

Though I do see something related to some people (not you) walking about naked.

Lets see where I land up when I tresspass again.

Preeti said...

@Stupidosaur...

hahahahahhahahhaahahhahaa...

pathetic/perfect things will follow soon...

Preeti said...

On the post: half of it went over my head..:D
..well, I have never been a character critic.. :).. and I am pretty bad at judging people as well..so I'll stay away from commenting at that.. :p


Off the post: I may not be writing..but I love reading you..honestly. I have slight idea about what might have happened and I just don't have words to comfort you...and I am pretty bad with words.. lets just have a cosmic..JHAPPI...jaado waali.. :)

Preeti said...

;-))))

PS: thank you sweetheart. im glad you are here. it really makes a very big difference.

sex is a wonderful window to touch and make love to the soul... sometimes you climb on love to reach the window...sometimes you jump thru the window and freefall into love...sometimes the window has frosted glass which despite everything else keep eachother annonymous :)

Preeti said...

Shoon...
I was waiting for you... :-)

i am so dazed by your comment that i will sheepishly slink away and come back later!!!

:p

Stupidosaur said...
