crying again?!

'Reasons my wife is crying' - Internet goes wild for writer's unbelievable list

"...a recent study found that people who cry more readily can experience more happiness as a result. Researchers showed volunteers some highly emotional films, and roughly half of the participants cried while watching them. While the mood of the non-criers was unchanged after seeing the films, those that had cried suddenly experienced an upsurge of happiness around 90 minutes later. "

so interesting! i tear up easily. so easily that i always get paranoid if i'm pregnant, or if someone else thinks i'm pregnant. i don't cry easily tho, since i generally don't let it go that far. but i also feel like i laugh a lot more than most people. when i lol and haha in chats, i'm actually loling irl too.

rip thinks i'm angry a lot, which i disagree with. and not just in semantics (because i think being irked, annoyed, frustrated are not the same as being angry/mad). but recently he thought i was mad when i was absolutely not. my emotions were neutral and my body was lazy. also, i think that when i get irked or annoyed, it tends to pass quickly. i rant for a bit, and it's gone. it can come back easily, but i'm pretty much over it.

one other not terribly related thing. i don't think my lows are as low as most people's. i get sad, for sure, but i don't really get sadder than sad. ...i don't even really know the words for it. depressed? heartbroken? grief-stricken, sorrowful, mournful, despondent? i certainly do get pensive and unhappy. and i've experienced heart-brokenness, but only for a minute or two, only once or twice, and not for years. i'm very lucky. not just in life, but i think in natural temperament.
