He obviously doesn't know me very well

My father said to me this morning "I want you to watch this movie. I Tivoed it for you."

The movie he wanted me to see?

The Yearling.

Me. The Yearling.

Yeah, I don't think so.

We're talking about me, the chick who started HYSTERICALLY sobbing in the middle of a movie theater when I saw the preview for this movie.
(In my own defense, I was pregnant, but I didn't know it yet.)

Does he really think I could watch The Yearling without falling onto the floor into a puddle of my own tears?

My father, apparently, has no idea what an emotional wreck I am.

I think he's the only one.

So Dad hasn't discovered you on teh Internets yet? Oh boy... :-)

I never had you pegged as a mooshy type. You're right, though. Mooshy types stay away from The Yearling.

I do recommend The Champ, however. Or this movie called "Old Yeller" ... you'll like Yeller. He'll remind you of Dexter.

Um, yeah, I could not do that movie either. I mean, why not just beat a dog in front of me?

Nilbo,Old Yeller?
You bastard.

i am so pregnant and so crying about everything right now. i can't even watch a comedy without feeling sorry for the person who's the blunt of the jokes...

Ok, the fact that you teared at a preview for a movie starring Paul Walker and 8 of his sled dogs: SO awesome. : ) I cry every time someone even MENTIONS extreme home makeover.

I may or may not know someone who cried at the trailer for Pride & Prejudice. Though hormones were undoubtedly involved, no pregnancy was forthcoming. Deep shame, however, was.

Um...I cried at the P&P trailer as well. It's that damn music and Mr. Darcy striding across the moor! I'm helpless!

Yeah yeah yeah I also cried at the Paul Walker/husky trailer. Just shut up.

I'm super sensitive about anything animal-related. I cried when I saw the preview. And I wasn't preggers.
