Crying for the Cranes

This extraordinary thing happened to me when I got married--I got infinitely more emotional. Well, to be fair, I got more emotional about things regarding marriage. It's the reason that the movie Date Night made me cry, as well as laugh. And the reason that I am apparently very concerned about Niles Crane's open-heart surgery on last night's re-run of Frasier. I have no emotional attachment to the Crane family. I barely watched the show the first time around (though I could probably sing you that quirky theme song about tossed salads and scrambled eggs. But that's just because it's catchy). However, when we stumbled upon a re-run that had Niles on a hospital bed and Daphne in tears in a waiting room, I found myself crying as well. I'm not sure what, if any conclusions to draw about this...I just find it so interesting. And it's probably another reason that I shouldn't have children: I'd be an emotional wreck! I could never watch anything...
