She was surprised when I said that and I said "Mom, didn't you notice me crying for two hours straight?" She thought my allergies were bothering me. Thanks ma.<BR/><BR/>The book moment that really got me? With No One As Witness by Elizabeth George-Helen Lynley. My God I was gutted. At first I was too stunned to cry. It wasn't even one of my favorite characters, but... Even now, I can feel that thump in the heart.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18499463.post-45036923707561421842007-04-05T14:11:00.000-04:002007-04-05T14:11:00.000-04:00Ooh, cool!

Just thought of another few good tearjerker movies...<BR/><BR/>Dead Poet's Society. Niagara Falls there, baby.<BR/><BR/>Also, What's Eating Gilbert Grape. With that one, once was enough.

I watched Brokeback Mountain last week, and now I need therapy because I was on a train and bawling my eyes out, and everyone was staring...).<BR/><BR/>One book that really, really got me -- I may have mentioned this before -- was <I>Odd Thomas</I> by Dean Koontz. With most books you can walk away, but I couldn't put this one down.<BR/><BR/>I get all lump-in-my-throaty just thinking about it.s.w. vaughnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09102544611773720262noreply@blogger.com
