Hope is a whore.

You're not going to get to kick the football.

Ever.

No matter what Lucy says, no matter how appealing her smile, no matter how delightful her promises, you're not going to get to kick the football.

You're not.

Kicking the football is for people who are not you. You, you belong to the group of no-football-kicking.

Every single time you convince yourself that the planets have aligned and that you might really get to kick the football, you are going to be wrong. Wrong, wrong, wrong.

No matter how happy you are to be running down the field towards that football with the sun shining brightly and the smell of fresh-cut grass in the air, you are not going to get to kick the football. You're not. She's going to yank it away from you again and you are going to wind up landing flat on your back while she laughs wildly at you, yet again.

You damn fool.
