Another talk with the mother.

After a week of just looking at dogs online, and obsessing over siberian huskies and more recently wolf-dogs. I finally mustered up the courage to ask my mom again about getting a dog. This time the conversation was like this:

Me: Mom I really have something important to tell you, but you can't get mad or say no right away okay?
Mom: What is it?
Me: Just say okay first.
Mom: What is it....
Me: I want to get a dog.
Mom (instant response): No!
Me: I'll take care of it I promise, take it with me to SD and everything.
Mom (thinking this is a good way to shut me up): Why don't you ask grandma to see what she says *confidently lifts her head up like she knows my grandma is going to shut me down*
Me: (figured I'd give it a try) Wai po, I want to buy a new dog.
Grandma: WHAT ARE YOU CRAZY? YOU THINK WE HAVE TIME TO TAKE CARE OF ANOTHER DOG?!? *mom smirks*
Me: I'll bring it to San Diego and take care of it
Grandma: (calmly) oh yeah thats okay then
*Moms jaw drops speechless*
Me: Thanks Mom!
