Bladders behind my eyes

At my doc appointment the other day I was telling my doctor about how emotional I've been getting lately and she said, "It's like you have bladders behind your eyes!" I hadn't heard that before but it's so true. Everything makes me cry, but not always in sad way. Sometimes the tears just come and I can't control it! The other day I cried because someone said something mean to Kelsey. It's not even pretty tears either -- it's big, fat, ugly sobs and contorted facial features. They only last for a couple minutes, but sometimes I'll get the "blues" for a couple hours after.

One night we were watching Mythbusters and they were doing a myth about how far a tree could bend before it broke. They broke several trees  and I just got so emotional about those darn trees!

The other day I was driving home from work and a new Brad Paisley song came on. I hadn't heard it, so I listened to the words, and that was  HUGE mistake. It was a song about him having a son. Here it is and here are the lyrics:

•  
• I remember sayin' I don't care either way
  Just as long as he or she is healthy I'm ok
  Then the doctor pointed to the corner of the screen
  And said "Ya see that thing right there well ya know what that means"
  
  And I started wondering who he was going to be
  And I thought heaven help us if hes anything like me
  He'll probably climb a tree to tall and ride hes bike to fast
  End up every summer wearin something in a cast
  Hes gonna throw a ball and break some glass in a window down the street
  Hes gonna get in trouble oh hes gonna get in fights
  Im gonna lose my temper and some sleep
  It safe to say that im gonna get my pay back if hes anything like me
  
  I can see him right now knees all skinned up
  With a magnifying glass tryin to melt the Tonka truck
  Wont he be a sight with his football helmet on
  That'll be his first love til his first love comes along
  He'll get his heart broke by the time hes in his teens
  And heaven help him if hes anything like me
  
  He'll probably stay out to late and drive his car to fast
  Get a speeding ticket he'll pay for mowing grass
  Hes gonna get caught skippin class and be ground for a week
  Hes gonna get in trouble we're gonna get in fights
  Im gonna lose my temper and some sleep
  Its safe to say that im gonna get my pay back if hes anything like me
  
  Hes gonna love me and hate me along the way
  Years are gonna fly by I already dread the day
  Hes gonna hug hes momma hes gonna shake my hand
  Hes gonna act like he cant wait to leave
  But as he drives out he'll cry hes eyes out
  If hes anything like me,
  There's worse folks to be like,
  Aw he'll be alright if hes anything like me  

Well that last little bit really threw me over the edge. I started BAWLING right there on the main road from work. I could not help it, I just sobbed for a mile. Kelsey called and was worried -- he asked what was wrong and I told him about the song. He sort of giggled and said, "aw, baby that's sweet." He's been really good about trying to calm me down and sooth me even when I am being crazy and irrational. It comes with the territory I guess!
