ME TOO!! Any horse movie!
but omg, yes, I can so relate --- Seabiscuit, Secretariat - being a few others that I just sob for. The very end of Secretariat.... Omg, I'm just just sobbing. T_T And that they're all based on real life... Gah! Love them, yet they always reduce me to a sobbing mess.

What's with all the sad horse movies?

It's not that they're sad... it's more that they're just emotional. It's hard to explain if you've not seen them.

Plus being a huge horse lover myself, it just makes it like 10x worse.

The only horse thing I've read is Black Beauty. One of my favorite books when I was younger.

Yay. I get to stand around for a half hour now =_=

I've only ever seen Sea Biscuit. I remember it being a good movie XD

I had to read an excerpt or something of Seabiscuit in class once.

I once watched The Green Mile and Pay it Forward in one night. I was a total wreck.

For sure!!

Honestly, I think it's a more common trait than you realize. Horror still isn't an extremely mainstream genre precisely because there are many, many people who can't handle it.

Haha, no, not a singer. It's this movie:
Se7en (1995) - IMDb. I was ten when it came out. Probably eleven when I saw it. So. Not. Appropriate.

Secretariat is even more amazing, if that's possible, to me than Seabiscuit. Amazing movie, amazing story. Amazing amazing amazing horse!

When K-pop song/group names coincide with movie titles and show names, the results are so much fun.

Oh, no, I actually have a trait that makes it harder for me to deal with over sensory things because it overwhelms me really easily. It's not just horror. It's just life in general.

The cool thing about Petauristarius updating us on Maria's project is that WE GET A KITTY!

all packed and ready?

Almost. I need to repack my wool socks tomorrow(I needed them because lol snow), so I'll go through my suitcase again, just in case. I should have enough time to pack my carry on bag, and then it's just finishing packing my messenger bag, and I should be done with packing. Outside of that, there's just a few things I need to purchase, and I can do that when I get paid this week.

I have forty pages of story planning in one file, and it's probably mostly me laughing at my own jokes and striking out terrible ideas that once seemed really good.

Secretariat is one of the Triple Crown Winners and he won the Belmont, the last race to get the triple crown, by 31 lengths ahead of the horses behind him. WHICH HAS NEVER BEEN BEAT!

And everyone said that he couldn't win the Triple crown as one either has speed or heart, and he had both and managed to show them all.

Oh, I almost have forty-one pages.

I wonder why I never even considered saying "40" instead of "forty?" Impressiiive.

In vet school we got to see Secretariat's x rays from the laminitis. They weren't pretty. Not as bad as Ruffian's though. I still shudder when I think of how awful those radiographs looked.

Inflamed anything is nasty.

Because it's double gold bubble day thingy?

Well we went to church this morning for " Scout Sunday". Jacob got to help during the service. Kaleb thought it was really boring. It was different that's for sure, my tummy was upset and i'm cramping really bad, so it wasn't as enjoyable as it should have been. Maybe if we go next Sunday, I'll feel better.

Oh, gosh... D: :( Bad bad!! :( We almost had to put down my Nemo to laminitis. T_T It got bad, he ended up going to another home - Nemo wasn't actually mine, but for all intents and purposes, he was - he was my neighbors, but she basically let me come over and ride him whenever and I took care of him, she just paid for his vet bills and food and all of that. But yeah... :(

Technically Secretariat had an enlarged heart. :) Helped out quite a bit.

Time to make words.

@Onsen: Yes, I know, but it's funny that I didn't even think of typing numerics instead of letters. Usually I do! Why, in my mind I could see "9 / 40" (because I noticed when I was on page nine), and I STILL didn't do it!

Mmm, yeah - I can definitely see that helping - I didn't know that, but the whole 31 lengths. Still incredible. But having the will to run was also key too. Still amazing.

I must have heard about Secretariat somewhere before. The heart thing sounds familiar.
