LOOKING FORWARD TO IT

A Peanuts cartoon:

Lucy and Linus were sitting in front of the television set when Lucy said to Linus, "Go get me a glass of water."

Linus looked surprised. "Why should I do anything for you? You never do anything for me."

Lucy promised, "On your 75th birthday, I’ll bake you a cake."

Linus got up, headed to the kitchen, and said, "Life is more pleasant when you have something to look forward to."
