*Loves Trista* Don't feel like there's something wrong just because you felt something strongly. You know where tears come from, right? Emotions are biochemistry in the brain, and when we have too many chemicals, the quickest way to purge them is through tears. Otherwise our poor brains would be awash with chemicals, and therefore, emotions, all the freaking time.

But in our weird effed up society, tears are a sign of weakness, or have other negative stigma attached. Don't fall prey to that trap. Tears are natural.

So. You're okay, kid.

Will I see you Sunday evening the 14th? I'll be coming through town and staying with Becca that night. We should go out or something.

Yeah, I fail at grammar or sentence construction. That sentence was supposed to be "It sounds like you had a strong emotional reaction to something that should elicit a strong emotional reaction."

Hope that makes more sense.
