Day 6: My tear ducts are still in fine form
“Run Forrest!!!!!!!” Ah the age old command that has plagued my life ever since I failed to hit that beep test buzzer as a wee child. Today I watched Forrest Gump for the first time in maybe 8 years and remembered it was with good reason. Firstly it is a “carver” movie. In that you have to “carve” out a whole day. It is damn near three hours long. And then after you watch it you have to emotionally decompress which takes up … a lot more hours.
I was very proud of myself for not crying until Jenny dies (SHOCK), gave myself pat on the back, for being an emotionless cyborg. But alas, that shrimp will get you every time. I think I may also be more emotionally susceptible to ping-pong tournaments. I am also soaring at Duo-lingo and that’s nothing to cry over.
