yea matt that book rocked. is there a third? anyway ready to start the week after a packed weekend. i know i've only told a few so you guys dont know yet. I got pulled over on rt 32 at 3:30 am after a party at matts. I was sitting in my car thinking 'so this is how it happens, this is how i'm going to lose my license for 6 months'. now of course i'd been drinking and i actually had some un opened beer in the car. they were riding shotgun on the floor. oh shit. the cop came over to the window flashed his light around the car and asked how many i had had and where i was coming from. i said 3, he flashed the open 12 pack and asked again, i said THREE a little firmer than before, and that i was at a freinds watching the pats game. he took my registration and went back to the patrol car. after 10 mins he came back and had me get out of the car. there were two of them. both putting on there best scare tactics, it was working but i didnt show them that it was. they slowly showed me each roadside sobriety test that i was to preform and i did so, walk the line, follow the finger and stand on one foot. they told me to get back in the car. after i sat back down i knew i did the test fine or else they would have cuffed me right then and there. he came back over to the window and told me to get out again. the other cop gave me the follow the finger one again. i guess i passed. he said 'you are borderline is there anyone who can come and get you, you have a cell phone?' i said yea and i tried to call my roomate, he wasnt home. thats it, end of line. i told the cops that i couldnt get ahold of anyone, can i walk? they said get in the car for the 4th time. after another 10 mins he came over to the window and said ' i'm giving you a ticket for too fast for conditions, i'm going to follow you to your apartment so take it real easy, you got lucky tonight.' so i drove to my apartment, they followed, end of story.
let me tell you boys that was one of the scariest things i've ever had to do. lucky i had a good buzz on or else i might have been terrified.
on other news, tuesday morning coffee sucks, my lab mate is not in, and my advisor is in england. looks like another day of surfing the internet. until next time, see ya
