Police

So yesterday after swim practice I was driving home only to be pulled over. Yes, I was speeding. Yes, I was driving the little red sports car. I know better, but hunger makes you crazy. I noticed him as I was changing lanes, slowing down, and descending a hill. Of course, off went the lights and I pulled over to the side of the road.

He approached..."Do you know why I pulled you over?"
Me..."I was speeding."
Cop..."How fast to do think you were going?
Me..."well when I looked down it was like 80 (mind you this is a 55) and was like OMG I need to slow down. Then I saw your lights"
Cop..."License and registration please."
Me..."OK" Some small talk about work, my driving record (gulp!), and he left.
Cop..."Did you see me and then slow down or slow down and then see me?"
Me..."Slowed down and then saw your lights." (like I would say I saw him first!)
Cop..."Well I'll just give you a warning because you stated the same thing both times I asked. Slow down and be nice to your students."
Me..."Thank you and I'll try!!!"

Thank you Jesus for hearing my prayers! I so could not afford another ticket. I'm so watching my speed better...for the moment. I'm not going to lie, I know I'll speed again. It's like a drug in that car!
