One of the many times that i have had to persuade my mom to take me some where was after tennis practice on a very hot day. I wanted to go get get I icey at burger king. My mom wanted me to start my homework. So I explained to her that it was exceptionally hot on the courts that day and if I were to not have a cold iced beverage some time in the very soon that i would not be able to do said homework. Her reply was that we have cold drinks at home and that she did not want to waist her time gas or money going out of her way to burger king when if she could go strait home. I told her that it couldn't be just any cold drink but that it had to be a cherry slushy. I also made a point to ask if it really a waist of time gas or money to bring me her youngest daughter a small bit of happiness va drive though. End result I got my slushy.
