Who Else.....

So Rachel and I have quite the amusing story from last night. It all started when I was done writing Therapeutics and was like, FUCK, I need to go tell Rachel.... she'll be happy for me. So....I went to Tantrix to visit for a while, see how all my "peeps" were doing and such.... and Rachel and I decided that we definatly were going for coffee later on that evening because we hadn't for about 2 weeks. which is a very, very long time in coffee-years.

Rachel picks me up at about 11pm that evening, and we go to Starbucks and get some lattes' and we drive around talking and drinking our coffee, like we do..... (For those who know what all that entails this story is even more hilarious... but I guess just Rachel and I know.... so it's even more funny for us....)

So we are on the corner of 33rd turning onto Idlewyld, and the light doesn't change for about 4 times in a row!! ... but the city bus beside us was getting pretty ancy after about 3 minutes of no green light, so they moved up and eventually the light changed.... But for about 2 minutes of us just sitting there, there was a cop car behind us.

The light turns green and we turn onto Idlewyld and sure enough, the cop car lights up, and we are pulled over. So Hot Cop #1 saunters up to the car, and is all "License and Registration" and Rachel kinds mutters something incoherant, so the cop says "Do you have your license and Registration, Rachel?" HAHAHAHAHA...... Yeah, she definatly didn't, because she doesn't have a license, because in her young and stupid days it was taken away.... and this is the 2nd or 3rd time that she has been caught driving while suspended.

So Rachel goes with the cop, and I wait and wait, and check the time.... 12:03am. So we must have been pulled over around 10 to 12. So I wait and wait, and almost fall asleep.... thinking... is this really taking that long.. or is it just me?

So a whole LONG ASS TIME later Rachel comes back to the car, "You need to get out, they are towing the car" So we gather up some of Rachel's car-crap and I get out, and the tow truck starts doing his thing...... and I am standing on the road, with Rachel.... and I figure, well, I guess I'll call Mel to come pick me up. And then the tow truck drives away, Rachel and I ajorn to the sidewalk, and the cute cops ask us if we have a ride, which we do, and then tell us to go wait at the Esso, because its not that safe for us to be waiting outside, and they make their departure as well.

So there is Rachel and I, standing on the sidewalk, with no vehicle... and I all I can do is quote Boondock Saints and say "I can't beleive that just FUCKING happened!" hahahahaha
(For those of you who don't know, Boondock Saints is a movie, my most favorite movie of all time, and you should watch it, it is amazing) So we walk to the Esso, and have a nice conversation with the girl working there, still trying to wrap our heads around what just occured, and I guess the cops weren't turning, until about 2 minutes of sitting behind us at the light that wouldn't change.... then they turned on the signal light. The Esso girl was watching the whole time and totally called us getting pulled over.

Then Melody showed up, with Jess in tow... sleeping in the backseat. We drove Rachel home while we recounted the details of the night and then dropped Rachel off... at 12:49. So by the time I got home it was 1:07..... which was a long ass night. Apparently the story of what happened was worth waking Mel and Jess up and making then come pick us up, which was good.... she wasn't mad.

Who else does this shit happen to? Really? It was just the oddest fucking night ever, and also since Rachel and I were having coffee and driving, it makes the story so much more hilarious.

Goodtimes.
