Crazie Town Crier

Mom and I loved to cry at movies.  When I was little we’d run all the boys out of the room and tune in to the Hallmark Hall of Fame…or maybe it happened in the opposite order.  Anyway, we’d sit next to each other on the couch, holding a corner of a dishtowel, ready to wipe away our tears.

I recently discovered that not everyone likes to cry at movies.  What’s up with that?  This week I saw Incredibly Loud and Extremely Close and cried so hard I had to bite on my knuckles to keep from sobbing too loud.  I walked out of the theatre with mascara streaming down my cheeks and a smile on my face.

You should give it a try.  It’s great therapy.  So go ahead, be a cry baby.

 

Calling All Crazies

Welcome Back to Crazie Town!  As you can see by the chart on the left, I have good reason for being a little more Crazie then when the holiday season started.

A few weeks before Christmas I decided it would be a good idea to get all these dates out of my head and onto a white board that hangs on the door to my garage.

It was a good thought, except that every time I looked at it my blood pressure went up ten points.

Speaking of ten points (good segue, huh?) I need to call all my Crazies together and ask a BIG favor.  I’ve finished my book – YIPEE – and am actively searching for an agent.  I would love to be able to say I have over 1,000 followers on my blog.  Soooo, please repost me on your Facebook page or Tweet about me or just ask a friend to subscribe.

I promise I’ll put you on the Acknowledgement page of my book.  Okay, I had my fingers crossed on that one, but I’ll be grateful forever…or, for a long time anyway.

Next week’s post?:  Everything’s Ruined When You Pee Your Pants.

See you then!
