Call it corny: I bawl my eyes out every time I watch Titanic. One of my favorite movies ever!

I also tear up when I watch videos of military families reuniting. Happy tears, but tears none the less.

Stupid Titanic sucking me in every time and making me cry EVERY time.

OMG I will think about that scene randomly sometimes. That little girl should have gotten every acting award in the entire world.

The last episode. Can't do it.

It used to be the only thing that got me was thinking about my mother getting older and possibly living without her. My list has gotten longer as I've gotten more tender-hearted over the years. It now includes:

*a number of Gospel songs
*the series finale of Boy Meets World
*any sorority ceremony
*songs that remind me of my grandmother (like Remember Me)

First 10 minutes of "UP"

Somewhere over the rainbow

When Dobby dies in Harry Potter, no matter how many times I read that book

I am also an angry crier. It is one of the worst things ever, and makes it difficult for people to take me seriously. When it happens, it makes me mad. Which just makes me cry harder...

I cry when I'm frustrated. Which is frustrating in and of itself.

I'm there, too. ESPECIALLY when I'm tired. Try to have a serious conversation with me past 10pm on a weeknight and there is almost guaranteed waterworks. Funny enough, that's when my husband decides serious conversations need to happen.

Dumbledore's funeral reminded me of my grandmother's. That damn book had me in the fetal position for at least 10 minutes. The same thing happened when the grandmother died in "A Day Late and a Dollar Short." Just don't mention the word "grandmother" ANYWHERE.

My dad. Mostly, whenever I think about him, especially on fishing trips. He and I used to fish together a lot. The bedroom I grew up in was left unchanged, and whenever I go back to Dilworth to visit my mom I always look at the things or old toys or astronomy books my dad bought me, and that does it for me. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't think about him. When I graduated from vet school, that was one of the best days of my life, but he wasn't there and it made that day very difficult for me. I miss him SO much.

Awww

Speaking of dads, Gary Allen's song "Tough Little Boys" never fails to make me cry.

You are a bad bad person! This opens the floodgates. I can't. I just can't.

Reading about people losing animals, even if the animal has lived a long and happy life. It just makes me lose my marbles.

Those Sarah Mclaughlin ASPCA commercials...no. Just. no.

I can't think about the family that formerly owned my dog leaving him in the high kill shelter he was rescued from. I'm just envisioning him going in to the place and thinking it was great and exciting...and being left in a cage and seeing his humans walk away. I just imagine him crying and being so sad and alone (and now I'm crying and he doesn't understand)


EDIT: more crying::

In November, when I landed in Glasgow...I cried. As soon as I got off the plane and stepped outside into the rain, I lost it. Its my home, more than any place I have lived. There's a certain light quality, a certain moisture to the air, a crispness...it's like an old friend, and the friends I made there are the best and most steadfast I've ever had, and I miss them like I'd miss a part of my body. And I'm crying again.
...don't judge me.

I seriously don't know what y'all are talking about. Tearing up?

But, if I were to get a little . . . watery-eyed, it would be at the end of sports movies. When Gayle Sayers makes the speech about Brian Piccolo. When the Fighting Irish carry Rudey off the field. When the Titans win the championship. When the Hoosiers win the championship. When Highland wins the championship.

Yeah.

Oh yeah. Big time.

And the end of Fellowship of the Ring when Sam won't let Frodo leave without him. And the of Return of the King when Frodo leaves without Sam.

My mom always tells me how great this movie is, but I haven't watched it. Every time it's been on I haven't been in the mood to cry...
