So I woke up this morning feeling like I got hit by a train the night before. I require a lot of sleep, which I haven’t been getting lately, so it was next to impossible for me to wake up. I finally decided to get up and take a shower. I must have like fallen asleep or something while showering cuz my normal 5 minute shower turned in to 1/2 hour. So I rushed to get dressed for work.
On my way out the door my mom shouts for me to go eat the breakfast she made me, so I reluctantly did. My mom and I have been on different schedules for a while, so I kinda felt like I had to eat what she made me. I quickly cleared my plate and looked at the clock…fuck, 10 minutes to get to work, but I can still make it.
I got in my car, turned it on, looked and the gauges, and FUCK outta gas. Fine, let’s go to the gas station so my car doesn’t die on the way to work. My house is pretty close to a gas station, but to get to it, you kinda have to do a zig zag pattern. So I made the first right, got to the stop sign, stopped as usual, put it in first, then decided it was time for a new cd, so as I was making a left hand turn I changed the cd, but didn’t change gears so I kinda revved a lil higher than normal. As I shifted, I saw a cop parked on the side of the road chatting with someone. No big deal. I got to the next stop sign, stopped, made a right, then on that street was the gas station. So I pulled in, shut my car off, opened my door, and just as I was getting out, the cop pulled up behind me and did his little flashy light/ uber loud siren thingy. He goes “I’m guessing you know why I’m pulling you over”. me: “Ummm, no actually I don’t.” him: " well, you were hauling ass down the street and you blew the stop sign." First off, I wasn’t pounding on my car, speeding, or doing anything stupid, but fine I can accept that if he thinks I was, whatever. But I ALWAYS make a full stop at stop signs, and he was parked on the side of the street about 3/4 of the way down behind about 10 cars, talking to someone! He claims he could’ve written me more tickets than just running the stop sign, but oddly enough he was super cool for being a cop and he didn’t.
Ok, fine, whatever so by this time I’m already supposed to be at work. I tried calling work to tell them I was going to be a few minutes late, and their overnight answering service was still on, so I couldn’t get through to anyone. I finally got to work, and something just didn’t seem right. We never have more than one person working at a time and there happened to be someone else there, so I decided to look at the schedule. FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK! I didn’t have to work until 2pm and it was 10:15 am.
Screw this, I’m going back to bed.
