Agh! The entire Buffy series gets me crying. I cried so much at the finale that my roommate came in from his room and asked me if I was ok. I was crying too hard and just pointed at the tv. I'm pretty sure he figured me for nuts.

Speaking of which, thinking about that finale is getting me all weepy!

OH & I cry when I read books too. Stephen King's "The Stand" had me crying so hard I had to put the book down for a few days.

I guess this is just a confessional type of week.

Aw, lady, why would you contain it? Why would I judge, I who cries sometimes during the DISNEYLAND FIREWORKS. They're fireworks, for pete's sake.

Besides, after all of the times we've sniffled over Everwood... the tears we shed at the end of Angel... the trailergasm we had while watching the Return of the King preview? (OK, that last one isn't crying, but it's embarassing nonetheless.) How could I possibly mock or judge the trickle of snot escaping your left nostril because life has begun as life just ended on Lost? How could I sleep at night?

Oh thank goodness, I thought that was only me!!!

You know.... my mom always cried during fireworks and during patriotic songs and I thought it was odd.

I cry during fireworks now and I'll know I've officially turned into my mom when I start bawling during Lee Greenwood's "Proud to be an American."

God how I cried at the end of the Angel series. Especially Wes's death.

My ex used to mock me when I cried watching movies/tv. He would always say "it's just a movie/tv show!" & again I say to myself "no wonder we broke up"!

I used to only cry at one movie, and one movie alone. Pride of the Yankees "Today-ay-ay....."

But now I'm a reformed hardass, so I cry at a lot of things. Just last night, I got teary just thinking about Lilo and Stitch when Stitch says "I'm lost." Luckily, it was right before our Mass for the Pope, so people probably just chalked it up to me being a good little Catholic.

I have yet to see The Notebook, but when I read the book a few years ago, it was right during the time that my grandmother was dying from Alzheimer's, so I was bawling like a baby the whole time I was reading it.

I've cried during some of the intense episodes of The West Wing...I'm trying to think what else. I don't usually watch Extreme Makeover Home Edition but once I was at the gym and an episode was on and I started crying....then I turned bright red because I was so embarrassed that I was crying over it.

I have a friend who for the longest time refused to go to movies because she was afraid of crying in public. She has a kid now though, so she has to go to movies. I don't know if she's cried in any of them yet.

I flat out bawled when Sarah McLachlan sang Angel (reminds me of my grandpa) and another song that reminds me of my uncle. Crying at concerts is a bit odd. It's so public and joyous....and then there's that weird 31 year old brunette bawling and boogering all over her taller thinner blonder tougher younger sister.

I cry during every. single. episode. of. E.R. Every one of them. It's my weekly nose cleansing exercise. It's riDICulous how that damn show makes me cry. Usually it's just a welling up of tears and some snot....other times....flat out bawling. My husband has never watched the show, but when I crawl into bed after ER and cuddle up to him, he always wakes enough to ask what it was that made me cry this time.....once I cried while telling him (when Carter's baby was stillborn).

I cry listening to the Wicked soundtrack. DAMN, I love that CD.

Sometimes I read Bridge to Terabithia, just so I can have an excuse to cry.

I cry during A Little Princess, thinking of the first time we saw it as a family and my tough little Cassidy tomboy cried.

I cry during certain scenes in Sex & the City, especially the final episode. Oh. Just thinking about the final episode makes me a little verklempt.

Prudence · 04-07-2005, 08:29 PM

I try my damndest not to cry in front of other people. If I'm by myself, I'll get all weepy at the slightest thing. But if threre are people around, no way!

WTF??? I just popped in the new DVD of Bambi, brought up the "Walt's story meeting" feature, and burst into tears when Walt's voice came on. I know it's a voice-over guy, probably Corey Burton, but, WTF???

Harold and Maude, when the doctor tells Harold the bad news, and Harold loses it, while Cat Stevens punches your heart out.

Meet John Doe, when Barbara Stanwyck gives her teary-eyed "don't jump" speech.

Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory when he hugs Charlie and gives him the Chocolate Factory.
(One thing that has always bugged me: Wonka pitched a fit when the fat kid fell in the chocolate river, but he seemed nonplussed when his Wonkavator smashed through the skylight in slow motion and showered the entire factory with enough broken glass to sustain a Whitesnake video, a Matrix sequel and a super badass leather-clad John Shaft window crash climax...unless it was candy glass, in which case it's all OK.)

The last episode of The Mary Tyler Moore show.

For a grotesque and fleeting moment in What's Opera, Doc, when Elmer experiences remorse.

When Cookie Monster shares his last cookie, because that is the ultimate sacrifice

The last verse of Born to Run.

When Tom Hanks can only stare at the moon he will never set foot upon in Apollo 13.
