Don’t get excited til the wheels are up

I cried in public today. I might have been able to stop it - yes, I MIGHT have let it continue because once it started (it was tame i swear, I wasn’t a sobbing embarrassing mess, these were ‘politely disappointed because I was missing out on the blue lagoon with my girlfriends’ tears)  and even after the agent apologized, maybe I hoped if they felt bad enough for me  they’d put me on a different, sooner flight.
