A Month Cannot Pass Fast Enough!

Well the only good aspect of today is that a month from now, in about an hour, I will be boarding my lovely Virgin Atlantic Flight to London!!!! And a month from tomorrow I will see Pete at the airport (if immigration doesn't hold me hostage again.)

Weird thing for today: This morning I was driving to school, those who don't know I drive an hour each way for my summer classes. Well there I was, about 1/4 way through my nearly daily journey when I pass two police officers who were in front of a restraunt talking. They both looked at me as I passed them in my little '92 Toyota Tercel. So I checked my speed, wasn't speeding. I though "hmph that's strange!" So I keep driving, I saw them get into their car as soon as I passed so I knew I was going to get stopped. So the sirens come on, I pull over into the next parking lot. There are TWO cop cars kinda blocking me in. Ooookay. This really friendly police officer says good morning as he approaches, I say hi. He then looks in my car, and says...."Sorry, but when you passed I thought I saw a BABY IN YOUR LAP WHILE YOU WERE DRIVING. Sorry about that, have a good day. Drive safe." WTF ????!!!!!!! Very Bizarre!

Other than that today has been crap, enough said.

lol, wow, now that is the craziest thing. How bizarre.

I agree with you on the month not being able to pass fast enough. I want it to be done already too. Then it'll be my birthday and then still another month until I see my parents again.

LOL! I think "We thought you were driving with a baby in your lap" is a new police pickup line in Florida.

Hey Juls,

Wow that's wired about the cop stopping you like that. They stopped Clayton the other day, because of the Wheel nob on his steering wheel he has to have it there cause of his disabilty. But they were just checking he had a disabilty as apparently they were ilegal otherwise. I noticed that American police are more aware of things, than UK police. They stop you for the most silliest of things.

Anyways hope you have a great Holiday weekend.
Take Care.
~Hugs~
