"Hey mom? Why are we approaching a city?"
"Thats not a city... thats just the motel lights at night"
"...mum... thats definitely a city"
"but there are no cities between here and home"
".....thats my point.... um... should we just go into the gas station and ask what city we're in?"
".................... you never exited from I35 did you?"
"uh was I suppose to?"
"....you remember when I said really loudly make sure you exit in 2 miles?....."
So yeah on our way home we went about an hour out of the way... at least I was observant to notice where we were and how to get home...
And then on the back roads:
"....oh no"
"what is it mum"
"theres a cop with lights on...."
Dark road, black, trees, nearest small town 10 miles... 10:30 at night... not speeding
um... yeah... it was scary... he pulled her over because "she didn't dim her lights on in coming traffic" all tho she had been the only reason she didn't was because she didn't see the truck until it ws right upon her.... then he asked her to get out of the car and I was ready to like call someone and get in the drivers seat because frankly back woods in texas with a cop who looked kinda like the one from O Brother Where Art Thou? .........
we made it home-
eventually
o.o
home,
holidays,
