I don’t know about you, but other drivers often irritate me with their lack of manners and utter disregard for the safety of everyone around them. About a million times in my life I’ve thought, “Man, I wish there was a cop here right now.” Yesterday the magic happened, and I was as happy as if someone had given me a $500 Target gift card. (Well, at least pretty close to that happy. Because a $500 gift card? To Target? Seriously?) Forgive me, I digress.
I was on my way to the store and was coming up on one of the side street/intersections near my house. A police cruiser was waiting for me to pass so he could turn left on to the street. Now mind you, the only two vehicles on the road, and in broad daylight, are myself and the cruiser. I see a car barreling towards the intersection on the side street. I thought they would surely stop since, well, you know…they had a stop sign and a police cruiser was right there in front of their face. Ummm…no. I cannot tell you how they did not hit the ass end of my jeep. The car dropped in so tight behind me I could see the food caught in the guy’s teeth in my rear view mirror. The police officer immediately did a U-ie and turned on his lights. I actually laughed out loud and did a happy dance in my seat. Seriously. I did. The best part? When I came back from the store about fifteen minutes later he still had the guy pulled over. I did what any mature adult would do and waved and smiled at them.
I decided a little print mixing was in order when I put this together. So I used two of my favorite prints, plaid and floral. As you guys know, I always try to be completely authentic and only share with you what I actually wear. And if for some reason I don’t, I tell you. I actually wore the quilted slip on sneakers, but knew beyond a doubt the ankle booties looked better. But my foot was being particularly ornery so I had no choice but to go with the sneakers. In any case, I wanted to show you both ways…the reality and the way it should have been.
