:hug: Hugs to you.

[progmom]

9. oh sweetie

:hug:

this was a dumb post, i am sorry.

[merh]

21. No it's not, it is good to be able to discuss crying

More importantly, it is good to know that others understand.

Heck, for the hugs alone the post is worth it. :hug:

[progmom]

i wasn't thinking about the fact that so many of us were crying for the

same reason.

:hug:

[Der Blaue Engel]

2. Yesterday, reading Scamdy threads

:cry:

[Kathy in Cambridge]

[VelmaD]

[sundog]

5. 2 days ago

[flamingyouth]

6. Last night.

For various reasons.

[candy]

7. I can't remember!

[Kathy in Cambridge]

12. That's the way I am generally. Not a crier.

[candy]

16. Sometimes I wish I could cry but I just don't,I internalize---not good.

[Kathy in Cambridge]

25. Same here. Freakin' Irish/Scandanavian stoicism.

I more inclined to get mad actually than cry.

[dhinojosa]

28. I am German/Mexican.....

Don't know why I don't cry.

[Pharlo]

22. Ditto: Crying = Migraine Trigger.

Avoid at all costs.

[dhinojosa]

26. 9/11 was probably the last time for me...

So long ago. I don't cry much.

[dhinojosa]

33. WRONG!!!! It was when I saw Fahrenheit 9/11!!!!

When the soldiers who had no legs were talking about the way they were treated. I saw that movie once in the theatre, and I never want to see it again. It was a great movie, but movies like that I only need to see once.

[bicentennial_baby]

10. last week

i do that sometimes

[WCGreen]

11. I heard the Song the Bravest again yesterday

that always choes me up.....

The firemen were running up
While we were running down....

A song about the towers told from the persepective of an office worker trying to escape......

[Wapsie B]

13. A short while ago

with my daughter when I was talking to her.

[biscodawg]

14. lots of stupid stuff can make me cry

Well not really bawl or anything but if the right song comes on and triggers the right memory or emotion I get all misty eyed. Last time i think i cried though, was watching (this is so corny oh damn I might have to edit this) the Howard Zinn documentary. :hide:

[givemebackmycountry]

15. All the time

I cry over commercials.
I cry during certain music.
I cry when one of the guys working for me does something special.
Shit, I cried when Dale junior won at Chicago yesterday!

I may be a asshole from New York, but I'm a sensitive asshole!

[Spacemom]

17. I cry daily

My mom died 26 days ago. I imagine I will continue to cry on a regular basis for a long time. :(

[RevCheesehead]

51. I'm so sorry, Spacemom...

:hug: Let the tears flow...

[Spacemom]

55. Thanks, Rev

It's hard. But I'm dealing the best I can. I know I'll miss her everyday for the rest of my life.

:hug:

[RFKHumphreyObama]

58. My thoughts, prayers and condolences Spacemom

You have my deepest sympathies, prayers and thoughts -as do your family :hug:

[tinfoilinfor2005]

19. two nights ago reading some Andy posts.

don't get me started...

[WildClarySage]

20. Saturday.

I'm pregnant and totally emotionally unstable (is that a redundancy? lol) and I posted something here that several people jumped on me for, saying I was accusing someone of something when I was simply making a connection, and it just set me off on a crying jag. There was other stuff, like I'm totally fat now and feeling very insecure about being pregnant, etc. But it still bothers me that even here, people sometimes forget that there's a real person with real feelings on the other end of the post.

[JimmyJazz]

65. Congratulations on your pregnancy - but those hormones

can make one a little on edge. :hug: But, don't worry about posters jumping on you - it happens to all of us at one time or another. Just come hang out in the lounge for a while. That usually helps. :hi:

[evlbstrd]

23. Saturday night.

At the thought of my family imploding.
Crap, here I go again.

[progmom]

27. .

:hug:

[evlbstrd]

35. Thanks.

sniff

[elshiva]

24. Cried last night because my back is really bothering me.

[OrwellwasRight]

29. While listening to the NPR story about the families of the 3 civil rights

workers sitting in the gallery while the trial of theirt murdered sons and brothers began. I lose it when I really shouldn't.

[GreenPartyVoter]

30. Very sniffly over Andy. Came close to crying a couple of times over mom

while away at cheer camp. (She loved cheering too. The times I almost cried were:

a) thinking how I couldn't call her to tell her how it all went

b) seeing the special ed girl that was at camp. Mom would have liked to have known about her.

c) the day one of the other coaches, and older lady, complained of bad heartburn. I had to ask her if she was _sure_ it was heartburn and explained what happened to my mom.

[RevCheesehead]

52. Hugs to you, GPV..

:hug::hug::hug:

[GreenPartyVoter]

68. Thanks, Rev *hugs* Just having a "Job" year. :^(

[Merrick]

31. As a macho man I hate to confess, but...

Last night while watching the documentary film "My Flesh and Blood" about a woman in Central California who adopted 13 special needs kids. Watch it. I dare you not to shed a tear or two.

[youthere]

32. About 10 min ago...

My daughter's pet rabbit died tonight.

[LastKnight]

34. much too recently

honestly i wish i hadnt needed to recently.

[Lilyhoney]

36. Several times today.

Frigging pms. I posted on a thred about my family and when I think about my family, I cry.

[khashka]

37. Last night.

I listened to Tori Amos's "Me And A Gun" and it got me remembering and obsessing about my own rape. Well, it was the anniversary of it, so why not? I wasn't crying for myself but for the man who saved my life (he really seriously did) and looked after me and took care of me.

He died. And it's only as the years have past that I've appreciated what gifts he gave me, and with each year I learn new appreciation. And he's dead and I can't tell him how grateful I am and fuck it now I'm crying again dammit!

But here's to you Charlie! You will always have my eternal love and gratitude. Just wish I could tell you that. Shit! Fuck!

Sorry, everything is under control. I apologize. I just wish I could tell him thank you.

Khash.

[progmom]

38. oh Khash

:hug: :hug: :hug:

[khashka]

44. S'ok, s'all right

It was 21 years ago and I'm OK. The story is pretty fucking ugly and serial killer type scary but it's usually OK. I can even occassionally laugh about certain aspects of it.

But this time of year I wish to the gods I could just thank Charlie for everything he did for me (including literally saving my life) and I can't and it get's me thinking and... well, major self indulgent tear-fest. I think the best tribute I can offer him, is to try to be like him. Rather than just sit around and cry.

Khash.

[liss681]

48. I am so sorry

I am sure he knew how you felt about him.

[blondeatlast]

39. About 4 hours ago, watching Farenheit 9/11.

The tears start at the CBC pleading for one Senator to offer a written objection, and then never stop.

[sleipnir]

40. About two weeks ago.

Tough times, I somehow always seem to go through rough times during the latter half of summer. This is three years in a row. I rarely cry (fake male machismo,) but when I do, it's usually for good reason and then I'm fine for another year.

[Droopy]

41. When my grandpa died

and I was out on the road unable to come home to his funeral. I guess that was about 6 years ago.

[In_The_Wind]

42. today

[Lone_Star_Dem]

43. What time is it?

:)

[Tyler Durden]

45. couple of weeks back: DSO performance.

Jaarvi conducting. Performance of Straus's "Last Four Songs."

[Lilith Velkor]

46. 2 weeks ago, my monthly cry

[Individualist]

47. When I watched Symbolman's tribute

to Andy.

[all.of.me]

49. um.... this morning......

[Hardrada]

50. 12 years ago.

Lost a brother. Cried awhile. Before that probably not since 1974 and that was just "crying in my beer." Am Norwegian by background and displays of emotion are genetically programmed out.

[RevCheesehead]

53. Yesterday.

I was sitting with my two cats, and started missing Roo, the cat who died 6 weeks ago. It just feels like someone is missing from the family.

[knowbody0]

54. i am crying right now

watching F-911. been crying for 45 minutes. it feels good to finally cry.

[BlondieK143]

56. Yesterday.

Stupid work situation.

[GOPisEvil]

57. Saturday.

And it was all your fault.

Well, you and later Pink Floyd. :)

[Trigger Hippie]

59. Last week.

General life stuff, depression.

[RFKHumphreyObama]

60. When * was re-elected

It came one month after our sexist, racist, reactionary neo-con jerk of a Prime Minister was re-elected with full control of the Senate. The same Prime Minister who looked so similar to Dick Cheney that Jay Leno confused them both

I just couldn't face up to the fact of a few more years of two reactionary world leaders who have destroyed all the ideals and values that I cherished so dear


It takes a lot to make me cry -but that did it

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

61. yesterday

I've had a rough three days

[merh]

63. ((hug))

:hug:

[grace0418]

62. When I read sfexpat's Stalking Andy thread.

First I cried. Now I'm sick to my stomach.

[TrogL]

64. Last night - particularly bad pain and no way of making it go away

This morning ain't much better. I've got a doctor's appointment in an hour to hopefully deal with it.

[Akoto]

66. Inevitibly, when a new hurricane crops up.

Given my panic issues, it's never a good thing when one of these crops up. I made it through two direct hits last year, one of which took our house. We're going to move, but we have elderly family down here and the responsibility of handling their needs usually falls to us. Got to figure out what to do with that before we head somewhere other than Florida.

So yes, I've cried a little now that we're already getting shot at by Mother Nature. :p

[kick-ass-bob]

67. All out boo-hoo or tears in the eyes?

Tears in the eyes: the end of Field of Dreams, thinking simultaneously about me, my son, and my dad.

Boo-hoo? The day after Bush was re-Selected.
