All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Also, I think I need to be stopped from reading Dawson's Creek fanfic which makes me cry. If Herself wrote Dawson's Creek ever, I think I would die, because something about the way she writes makes me tear up from beginning to end of anything I've ever read by her.

Looks like it's Nicole Kidman's turn to wear the ridiculous bow on the dress this year (last year, it was Hilary Swank with that big green pillowy bow).
