Out of curiosity, did any of you others suddenly turn into a giant weeping sot at a certain point in your life? I don't mean necessarily a specific instance. I was never a crier. I mean, yeah, I cried at funerals for people I was close to, but sad movies didn't make me cry. And if I did cry during a movie, that meant my mom was weeping. But she cries during Dumbo, so make what you will of that.
But then all of the sudden, I've found myself becoming a crier. It's a pretty recent thing. Maybe it was everything from this past year, or maybe I had some horrendous hormonal explosion, but I'm pretty sure I could look at a dandelion and my eyes would tear up.
I've already cried twice today. I went over my uncle's to watch the Eagles fantastically suck, but it was also the first time I had been to Nannie's house since her burial. I felt my throat closing up just walking up the stairs, and then to see how different everything is now just got me sobbing. It wasn't because things had changed, but probably more because it was the first time we had a family party there since Nannie died. And as much as the Eagles disappointed me this evening, I'd like to point out that they were not in fact the cause of my second outburst.
The second time I cried was during Grey's Anatomy tonight. The people with the pole through them were just so sad, and I started sobbing. It's ridiculous. It's television, and those people are actors. But apparently really convincing actors.
Hopefully the SEPTA strike won't make me well up. Crying three times in a day over stupid things is so not me.
