Hallmark tears
Today was one of the ugly days. We all have them. You know oneis happening when you wake up wanting to cry. Today was one of those and it went downhill fast.
I walked into my office and the crap questions started before I could put my purse down and turen on my computer. I got hammered. When the computer came up, there was an email, asking the same damed f*$%(ing question! It wa shandled by 8:0 am. Geex, cut me some F$*&#ing slack. It's Monday f$&#cking morning!!!
It was a rapid slide into a hell hole of other people's damned problems.
I managed to arrange a massage after work. My therapist is very accomodating and I am grateful for him.
Once at hoe, relatively relaxed, I poured a large shot of Bourbon and turned on a Hallmark movie. there is nothing like a Hallmark movie to make you cry necessary tears. I sobbed for two hours. It was good to cry for a fictional charachter as it took me outside of my own pain for a change. Thank goodness for Hallmark.

It was a fabulous cry. The relief is tremendous. I've DVR'ed several Hallmark movies for emergency use.

Ah, Susan,
What a bunch of crap this all can be! I wish I could wave a wand and make it easier for you but their is no way, I am finding, but to walk through it. I find that reading sad poems help but I think the Hallmark movie idea sounds much better.
I hope you had a better day and that each one continues to be better (at least on average). And now, time to find that Hallmark Channel. Two brothers are coming tomorrow and I hope to be all cried out!
Hugs,
Suz

Susan, I hope today is better for you. I agree there is nothing better than crying during a Hallmark movie, you can cry for them and yourself at the same time!

Susan, I hope today brings you a better day. Releasing tears even for fictional characters does release some of our own pain. Hallmark's "The Lost Valentine" is one of my favorites for a crying fest. Here's to Tuesday and a brighter day. Best thoughts your way. Tiffany

Susan, hope today dawned better for you. Yes, Hallmark movies do do that. I had to finally stop watching them at Christmas (I love Christmas love story movies, my husband would always watch them with me and make fun of me while I cried, lol). Anyway, seems every movie I watched last Christmas it started off with the character being a widow. Yikes. Hugs, hope today is better.
