OK, I never in a million years thought it would happen to me. I mean, no one ever thinks it would happen to them, right?

Once upon a time there was a nice, homeschooling Mother out on a drive to visit Gramma. Low and behold, she notices a nice black and white vehicle following her. She pays CAREFUL ATTENTION to the speedometer. The nice black and white car comes extremely CLOSE to the homeschooling Mom. Soooooooo, the Mom decides she must have moved into a faster speeding zone and steps on the gas.

BWEEP!BWEEP! OK, Mom is now wondering if she did NOT move into said speed zone! Sigh......she pulls over, turns off the radio and prepares a nice story for her husband!

Homeschooling Mom: Is there a problem officer/

Policeman: Well, you tell me. Is there a problem?

Homeschooling Mom: Not that I can see?

Policeman: You were swerving an awful lot towards the fog line, Ma'am. Have you been drinking?

Homeschooling Mom: [trying not to guffaw and wondering what on earth a fog line is???] No, sir I have NOT been drinking (at 10 a.m!!!). Would you like me to get out and walk for you?

Policeman: No, that's o.k., but do you always drive like that?

Homeschooling Mom: Well, um, Yessir. I do. I have been told by certain male family members that I have a tendency to do that, but I did not believe them.

Policeman: You really need to work on that. I would have thought you were drunk! License and registration please [as said policeman looks around the van with 3 of my 4 kids in it that are DYING from laughter!!!!!]

He returns with my paperwork and tells me to pay careful attention. I accept the papers and apologize for any inconvenience. All the while the policeman did not crack a smile and spoke in a rather monotone voice which made the Homeschooling Mom want to laugh all the more!

OY! Are you kidding me???????????? I was pulled over for drunk driving?????????

I was NEVER, EVER ,going to hear the end of this.
