Sweetie Blues

I've had better days, I've had worse.

Today won't be so bad tomorrow, but that's still a ways off.

What I need now is a sweetheart. I need to be smooched on the forehead. I need hot cocoa made with marshmallows and love. Words of encouragement, a blanket, and some quality couch time in front of the TV with my head in her lap.

But no such luck. No sweetheart for me tonight.

Men are babies sometimes.
