So it's been a while.
A long while.
But for now I'm back from the academy for Christmas. Erin and I recently got back from her home town (3 hours away) in celebration of her sides Christmas. Then we have the 25th here. Then the weekend after the 25th at MY parents. Then the weekend of the 3rd and 4th of January at my Aunt's for the extended family Christmas, and tonight we're doing a gift exchange with friends.
And all in all, it's not too bad.
Till you hit the F*#@ing streets.
Little tip for those of you who drive on ice...SPEED WILL KILL YOU!
Here I am driving back from academy, doing my 5 over (I know....I'm bad) and here comes Mr. Small Pecker in his pimped out ride with his spoiler doing 91 (Got him on radar but was out of jurisdiction). I nearly shit myself because I didn't see him approaching my ass till the last minute and I swerved in the moment almost going off the road.
But God is not without a sense of humor...not only does Captain Dingleberry hit a patch of black ice and almost kisses a semi right next to him, but he catches the eye of another driver...who is sitting in the median...with "State Trooper" down the side of his car...who's running radar.
All of a sudden Mr. Special Ed slows down to 55 and dives for an off ramp. I call 911 who transfers me to the local jurisdiction. I tell them I locked him at 90, what exit he took, and that I would be happy to sign a complaint. I leave my number and go on my merry way.
Right before I get home in my personal car I get a call.
"Hi is this Officer Arnold??"
"Yes it is."
"Hi I'm Trooper (forgot his name) and I was just confirming that you had a front lock on that car at 90 mph?"
"Actually it was 91 Mph that I had him"
"Oh...well good, because I had him at 87 but wrote him for 90 after dispatch advised me another radar was out there. He got a $175.00 ticket, thought you'd like to know."
HA HA HA HA HA!
Karma's a bitch ain't it?
