So if you were driving on Poplar Wednesday night around 7:30 pm and saw blue lights in front of Second Pres you were probably thinking 'Oh busted'! Well that was me! But I wasn't busted for speeding I was pulled over -- and not just pulled over but the cop did a U-turn on Poplar to come get me -- for having one headlight out. He said it was a courtesy and gave me a 'Courtesy Ticket'. Yes, that was nice and courteous.
It was nice he didn't give me a ticket with a dollar amount attached. However, we were pulled over (with bright blue lights flashing and Caroline crying) for a while. People were staring and I am sure were wondering what an innocent looking person like me did. The whole time as I am sitting there (thinking I am going to kill Chris for not fixing it last weekend as promised) I am thinking... ok, this is the crime capital of America not to mention the place where everyone runs red lights because that's just how you drive in Memphis, and this guy is pulling me, in a semi-mom-machine over on my way home from CHURCH, over for one headlight being out! Doesn't he have more important things to be doing! I watch the First 48!
Well I appreciate the Courtesy Ticket (which he said I could throw away or show to other nice policemen who pull me over), and hopefully it will inspire Chris to fix it, but get back to work fighting crime Mr. Police Guy!!!
