an emotional breakdown? what?!

Everyone says that the first hint to them being pregnant was because they were suddenly emotional - like crying at commercials and silly things.

I never went through that...

until yesterday.

I love watching movies while I get ready for work. It normally takes me a few days to get through a movie. I watched Sense and Sensibility late last week (oh my gosh, favorite) and cried at the right parts, like when Edward says he isn't married to Lucy Steele and Elinor can't contain her sobs. I always cry then so I didn't think anything of it.

The last movie I watched was One Day - it is currently on Netflix. I mean, I liked it, but Jim Sturgess' character was not really my favorite. Until the romance we are waiting for, finally happens and Jim Sturgess becomes a decent man! And then, yesterday morning, after I had fallen in love with the characters and I was fixing my lunch, absolute tragedy struck. Of course, mom walked down right as I gasped and then broke out into full on, can't talk, sobs. The worst part was I had to leave right then! The tears followed me throughout the day and when I finally finished the movie that night, they turned back into sobs.

Anyway, thinking about it still makes me cry. And now the movie has a special place in my heart.

Then that night we watched Validation at a training and, of course, I had to hide my tears at the end.

And that is about as emotional as I have gotten this pregnancy. Not bad considering I am 24 weeks in!
