as mentioned in an earlier blog, no one needs to understand my need for HBO they just need to know thats its important. for the past how many ever weeks, one week before season 3 of TRUE BLOOD is to start, one can understand the panic and frenzy i was in. my main goal in life at the time was to somehow get HBO back on tv. i tried being mean, angry, crying-everything but my father would not budge.
father :kulzum why cant you understand, these bastards just steal our hard-earned money?
me: WHY cant you understand I WOULD PAY ANYTHING just because of TRUE BLOOD???
father: FINE then you pay the cable bill!
me: i cant im poor
father: you are SO UNGRATEFUL!!!!
me YOUR so mean im going to tell vapuma (grandma)
this went on for a few weeks, the fights were more or less the same. Finally i had to resort to involving my mother, usually when the father and i are on the outs she usually stays out of it. EVERYDAY for 2 weeks i would cry and beg and plead her to tell my father to get HBO again. she probably wouldnt have cared except for the fact that we work together and she knew i would keep doing this until HBO is back on my tv.
finally the day came june 9th it was 7 am and i was heading in to take my shower when i could hear my dad again.
father: you know what then CANCEL all this shit, i dnt need you.
me (thinking): oh shit, great now not only will i not have HBO i wont have CABLE period. me and my big mouth oh god oh god
like a creeper i stood outside my parents room listening to my father rant for a good 15 minutes or so. finally i heard "ok good HBO is now back, thank you"
my heart almost immediately flug out of my chest i was that excited. TRUE BLOOD was starting june 13th, and i had HBO back with plenty of time to spare. my whining and nagging worked!
Perks of being an only child :)
