to better days

I'm gonna let myself cry for ten seconds...
...those tears are for the fact that I'm spending Thanksgiving alone...
...away from family...
...away from friends...
...able to only indulge in saltine crackers and water...

...now...
I'm gonna stop crying,
suck it up,
tell myself that sometimes life stinks,
it doesn't always turn out the way you hoped,
and enjoy the only conversation available to me at the moment-Marvelly's, in all her magnificent grunting glory,
and raise my saltine in a toast,
to a better spent Thanksgiving next year.
