It's been such a crap day. And the best part about that is that most of it is stuff that I brought upon myself and thus have no cause to complain about. Apparently I know nothing about retail work. Which would almost make sense since, hey, this is my first retail job. Granted, I've been doing it for over a year now, but apparently I've spent that ( Read more... )

Oh you poor dear. **hugs** Even now, when someone just mentions an 18th street (they don't even have to be talking abotu DC), or Potomac around me, I get a little choked up. The three reactions to the news - Charlie's, Leo's and Jed's...**sniffs**

I worked retail on and off during my school years. It was rarely a fun time. Somedays you met cool people and that made up for it...but usually...not.

In an effort to make myself cry even more, I watched the second half of the Fellowship. Stupid quest. Stupid Ring. *tears*

Man, word. FOTR is still the only one of the Rings movies that makes me cry.

Here's to hoping tomorrow works out much better for you.

See, I remembered that it happened, but I never watched that episode. Guh.

And the only one? Really? I didn't cry at Two Towers, but it seemed to me (and probably everyone around me) that I cried for the entire. second. half. of Return of the King. I sobbed quite loudly as Frodo's saying goodbye and going off in the boat.

Thanks for the *hugs*. :)

Yeah, I know, I'm a loser. I really felt in my heart for Sam and Merry, with those looks on their faces, how could you not? But I didn't cry. I think because in the end, I was just so happy for Frodo, that he was getting to go away to someplace he could rest, after everything. The closest I came to crying in ROTK was during Frodo's speech on the side of Mount Doom ("I'm naked in the dark. There's nothing.")

It's really weird, I can never predict anymore what will generate tears and what won't.
