I'm not the only one

So I'm relieved to see that I'm not the only one who gets overwhelmed when presented with good news.

I remember when I got a new bicycle for my birthday. When I came into the living room and saw it leaning against the fireplace, I was rooted to the spot. I burst into tears and literally couldn't speak I was that choked up. And I was 46 at the time. (Okay, that last part is a lie.)

Watch this and tell me the truth: did you cry, laugh or do both?

I saw this too and it made me laugh! I don't really know this actress (I guess I'm too old) but it made me love her. And she was a good sport for letting it be shown on national television!

I laughed so hard when I saw this (with her, not at her). I, too, thought she was an incredibly good sport.

Laughed! That felt good!

I had the same reaction when I saw a whale for the first time. Sobbed like a baby. Thank goodness no one filmed it.

I didn't cry. I did laugh. And thought: GOSH I wish I looked that pretty when I bawled like a baby.

Deb & Pam - something you should know about me is I NEVER cry at anything to do with me. Cannot. It's a curse. But I can cry like a baby at a horse movie. Or a dog movie. Or a horse RACE. Freaky.

Great clip - made me smile.
