I'm Crying A Lot These Days

I don't think I can handle much more of this crying.

WATCHING GLEE:
Kurt and his Dad, the emotions, the letters K-U-R-T in big lit up letters a la GYPSY, the big dramatic solo numbers performed with tears in his eyes.

My boyfriend thought that when he sang, "Everything's Coming Up Hummel!" that he was singing "Everything's Coming Up, Homo!"

That puts a different spin on things.

These are the conversations that happen in my household. Then I start crying in bed, eating my grasshopper mint chocolate chip sandwich from MILK on Beverly Blvd when Kurt's Dad says it's just Kurt's job to be himself. I did the Naomi Campbell on Oprah ugly cry. It was bad.

And then later that night I watched THE BIGGEST LOSER on DVR. And it's that part of the season when they show the remaining five contestants the taped interviews of their formerly fat selves saying things like:

"You don't want to be back here."

"I am so proud of you. Look at how far you've come. You look great!"

"You've changed your life."

It's ridiculous. What happens to the interviews of the people who got kicked off the first week? Do they ever get to see those? It's serious waterworks. That's a great show to just clean out your eyes with. I had pink eye last week and I feel like that was better than a saline rinse. And emotionally cathartic at the same time. All I needed was an enema and I would have felt completely cleansed.

So last night on MODERN FAMILY, I just couldn't help myself because the whole surprise wedding of Phil and Claire...again, just emotional. And these are the comedies.

So I'm doing a lot of crying these days. Over the TV. I guess I just need a release.
