Thanks, Spuffy (may I call you Spuffy?). I was on the phone with a friend last night 'til 5am and he told me much the same; he was fine for days, weeks at a time after his mom died, but then sometimes a movie or poignant moment in a song or TV show would set him off and he'd be sobbing for the next three hours. I confess I am avoiding all things sentimental (other than my young nephews, a couple of whom are too young to really understand, and ask tough questions with no real answers that satisfy their need to know what happened to their grandmother). But then, I'm also not seeking out exclusively comedic entertainment either, so I'm not in total avoidance mode. I thought I would lose it at the end of Public Enemies, but I didn't. Quite. Anyway, thank you for the kind thoughts.
