history: I don't have family to spend Thanksgiving with. Sometimes I will get together with friends but this is rare. I usually end up alone for the holiday. Since most of my family is either dead or lives a few states away_comma_ I usually spend Thanksgiving alone. It sucks sometimes. Ohh_comma_ I feel sorry for you
current: Oh don't feel bad, I live a lovely life and have many friends. It's just that they usually go home to their own families that time of year.
next: Ohh, that's bad. You can always skype your family!
