Cops and me with no brains

So yeah, I totally got pulled over the other day. I am such a ditz. I was totally not paying attention while driving home from Othello and when a cop passed me going the other way I glanced down and saw 66 mph in a 60 and I thought, "oh crap..." and sure enough around he spun and I pulled right over and reached for my license and registration. Beck was sleeping and sweet Pais was just playing in her car seat happily talking to herself. I recognized the police officer as a parent of one of the gymnastics students. He said, "what's with the speed?" and I was like," ya know, I wasn't even paying attention." He said I was going 76! Wow! That's fast, I really had no idea. I apologized profusely and he so graciously let me off, then he said, "are you Kortni's sister?" yep, that's me. He said who's dad he was and I said, "yeah, I know I picked your daughter up from school yesterday." pause, "but I promise that I wasn't speeding with her in my car!" "hhmmmm...." Then he asked if I had noticed that my license plates were expired? What@!#!?? I know that I had put the sticker on, but then I remembered that that was on my old red car, not the Impala that used to be Stephen's, so I am blaming it all on Stephen. Then I dug through the jockey box and found the new stickers and asked if those were it and he said yeah and have a nice day. Whew! (Story doesn't end here) He drive off and I decided to put the sticker on the license plate right then and there before it was forgotten about again. So I hopped out and reached down to put the sticker on the back plate and noticed that my car was moving! Yep, in all the excitement, I had never put it in park, so I hauled my little fanny up to the driver's door and threw it open and in park. (this in on Highway 17 mind you! AHHH!!) Pais still smiling and Beck was still sleeping, and my heart was POUNDING! And yes,I still got out again and put the new sticker on.....
