"HAPPY FEET"

I just watched "Happy Feet" on TV. It was so funny; but at the end I cried and cried. I've noticed that it's not the sad things, but the happy endings that always brings me to tears. I thinks it's because with BP we get so used to the pain and suffering that it no longer seems to phase us; but it's hard for us to bare joy and happiness. We are both touched to the core by it and a bit (or a lot) jealous. Any body else feel that way? I hate to go to parties or malls or any place where there are a lot of smiling faces. Bah,humbug. Somebody ,Give me a pill.

Effexor blocks out my sad tears, so I weep shamelessly at happy things. Yesterday I watched "The Astronaut Farmer" and I sobbed like a three year old at Bambi.

BP re-tuned me so I'm always noticing subtle reminders of how fragile a llfe is.How beautiful too.
I think it's whether we like it or not.

Guys, Pluck has a book down on his question about crying. I didn't mean to repeat the same topic. Won't be offened if no one wants to go through it again. I got my kicks out of reading his "Crying". Also, Bambi was a killer movie, but Why did it have to be his mother? Why not thumper or flower?

I cry at the happy stuff but and the sad stuff too. NOBODY WARNED ME about March of The Penguins and I sobbed. "My Dog Skip" was a killer too.

I cry at happy things because they are happy and yet fragile and I may not experience them again.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
