"When was the last time you..."

Cryed?

For me, it was about 2 hours ago. Yes, go on, mock me, a 16 year old bawling his eyes out. You know why? My dog had to be put down. My life-long friend and family pet had to leave us, after 15 years of life, it was her time to go. We felt it was right in a way, she was suffering from blindness, deafness and arthiritis, so the vet agreed it was time.

I couldn't go to the vets because the place was too small for a family to fit in, so I had to say goodbye to Poppy before she left, she seemed happy enough and was confused as to why I was so sad.

May sound a bit poncy to some, but it felt good to cry, kind of lets it all go, from an opened bottle.

I think dog/cat owners would understand in a way, losing a pet is like losing a family member, they have a place in our lifes and we accept them as a sister or brother.

Anyway, when was the last time you shed a tear. . . . ?

Too right. The climax to that film is astonishing - the execution process.


I wanna watch it again.

For me it was,

1) When he's watching a movie for the very first time
2) When the prison officers are blubbing when they are going through the execution procedures
3) Hanks' speech "Everyone owes a death" at the end.

Its a cold, cold person who doesn't have a quivering top lip to that film ;)

I can't describe how it made me blart, but when that big black bloke dies at the chair (can't remember his name) 'tis really quite moving...

Man.

Green Mile really made me blub.

Must have missed this thread.

Everything's been cool with my life at the moment (touch wood), but the last time I squeezed one out was during "Amelie" about a week back, when Amelie gives the box of childhood toys back to the man the boy has become. The look on his face and his speech is amazingly moving.

Cute.

I must get myself some kind of camera.

and i've just dug out a photo of arnie, the 12-year-old.

One of my dogs is about 12 now, but he seems nice and fit - chases the younger ones around whenever they wind him up!

the other two dogs are young, less than 2 years old.

here's a nice little pic of charlie, one of the younger dogs.

Train it? Damn that's where I've gone wrong with this one!
