I'm pretty bummed.

The first reptile i ever owned was a leopard gecko (Roy) we saw one in a pet shop one day and i knew i wanted one my mom said "do your chores your homework and bring your grades up without being told for a whole month you can get one"(i was like 13 )
That whole month i did all that went from B's to Straight A's month went by i brought it up again and her exact words were "hehe No but see what you can do when you apply yourself?"i was like WTF!*sad face*
But I'm sneaky another month went by and i asked about it again she said something along the lines of "behave and you can get one for Christmas" it was early dec so when i went Christmas shopping with my grandmother on the 23rd i bought one lol with all the accessories went straight home brought it in my room and hid him
Christmas morning i put a bow around his little carrier and waited we started opening gifts i said oh mom i almost forgot your present!!! i went into my room grabbed him brought him to the living room and handed her Roy she was a little pissed off at first but it worked lol i got to keep him so technically it was hers but I'm the one who cared for him
not long after that we got Geezer my Beardie
