in which i cry like a baby

So I just watched “The Notebook” for the first time — I know… could I have waited any longer to jump on that bandwagon? For a solid chunk of the beginning, before I really figured out what was happening, I really wasn’t seeing the appeal. But by the end… bawling like a baby! Could not stop the tears from pouring down my face. It wasn’t even the young-Allie/Noah that was killing me… it was the older-Allie/Noah. Once I figured out what was going on, that Allie had dementia and couldn’t remember that the man reading her the story was her husband, and that it was their story*… oh dear lord. Tears just pouring down my face.
Holy crap… I understand why people say you need tissues to watch that movie.
*I highly doubt I actually spoiled this movie for anyone… but if I did, I’m really sorry!

It’s OK. The first time I watched it, I cried like a baby, too.
That’s an incredibly emotional movie. It took me by surprise because I thought I would laugh my way through it…
