SO, I totally just had the best conversation* with the parentals. I've been pestering them the entire week about getting me PIE my birthday...ohh how i love pie.
dad: If you had to, hypothetically speaking, pick your favourite pie...what would it be?
me: APPLE!!!
dad: ...Not cherry?
me: NO, not cherry...did I not just say APPLE!! Meaning cherry pie is sickening and makes me feel like death is imminent...
dad: Are you sure? Maybe you're confusing that "death feeling" with sheer joy. I can remember you saying something about cherry. Personally speaking, I think cherry is WAY better than apple.
me: ...are you saying you got me cherry pie instead of apple?
dad: Haha, don't be ridiculous...
me: DON'T LIE TO ME...I'M THE BIRTHDAY GIRL *exorcist face*
dad: FINE...we screwed up.
me: well did you AT LEAST get me a slice of watermellon and candle like I asked?
dad: *silence, looks at my mom*
mom: I bought you three watermellon slices yesterday...
me: YEAH, yesterday...they lasted me through lunch, dinner and breakfast today.
mom: I'm not buying you more watermellon, you're going to explode
me: BUT I'M THE BIRTHDAY GIRL!!
mom: FINE *totally contemplating why it is she decided to give life to me*
mom: Does anyone want anything else from the store?
me: I WANT APPLE PIE!
mom: Really? two pies?
me: *death stare*
mom: FINE, you're the birthday girl I get it...
In case you're wondering...I'm still waiting for my pie/birthday watermellon
*Okay so this isn't EXACTLY how the convo went...I have a bad memory and like to add drama to situations to spice things up. BUT, that's totally the jist of the conversation, and everything i said is pretty much true...I even gave the exorcist face!! Note to parents: always keep a spare whatever-your-children's-favourite-pie-or-cake-is on hand so you don't look like a complete douche on their birthday :D
EDIT: I just had another fun convo with my father...and this is JUST how it went. No paraphrasing this time:
dad: You should've asked for ice cream cake...
me: Why? You like ice cream cake?
dad: I don't know...I've never had one before
me: We got you one for your birthday!!!
dad: Oh...I don't remember that
me: Well we did get you one. *Maybe if you didn't get so shitfaced, you'd be able to remember
*As i said...no paraphrasing, minus the whole shitfaced comment. It totally happened, i just didn't say that to him as I like NOT getting smacked** :)
**Just to clarify, I've never actually been smacked by either of my parents. But that doesn't mean my dad isn't one scary mofo, he totally is.
EDIT: My mom just got back with ONE watermellon slice. I asked for three. She also made me pay for it...AND she forgot the candles. WORST BIRTHDAY EVERR...or not...probably not.
