so this was my saturday night

so yeah csl show fun blah blah

then anyway i went home like 30 minutes after we played at like 8:30. i call el nava, shes still at her little dinner thing. 20 minutes later she calls and says shes free so she comes to pick me up. we only have time to hang out for an hour. so we do our thing for an hour and she drives back to my house.

and so heres where this story gets crazy and i probably will never ever forget this. and if you dont believe this then i dont have time for you

ok so as we're pulling into the parking space i see a guy in the distance. i dont think anything of it and forget about him. so yeah me and nava say our goodbyes and right before im about to get out im looking at natalie and im sitting in the passenger seat (try to get a mental image) and all of a sudden for face goes white (ha shes brown so thats really hard) but she has this terrified look on her face and shes like "what the hell?" and i turn around and theres this guy standing right in front of the door mumbling and hes trying to open the door. for a second he gets it open and i close it hella fast and nava locks it. the guy is totally wasted. totally fucking drunk. so nava hits reverse hella quick and zoomes out of there. the guy is just standing there shaking his head.

so we're fucking horrified and we have no idea what to do. the guy is right in front of my house. so we drive to alamo plaza and stop. natalie calls her dad and her dad is like call ross's mom, wait there until you know hes gone. i call my mom next and shes asleep and she really doesnt understand the situation. she says its probably some stupid kid. but it just freaked the crap out of me that he tried to get in the car.

so then navas dad calls back and says he coming. me and nava argue for awhile about what to do. she says that she wants to wait there for her dad and i want her to drive back to my house. i mean if we're in the car, even if we see him, he cant do anything if we're moving.

as we're debating what to do a cop pulls into alamo square. (we're parked at alamo cafe). hes waving his flashlight and its obvious that he got a call about the guy from someone. at the time i thought it was my mom. so i decide im gonna get out of the car and wave him down. this leads to one of the lowest moments of my life.

yeah so i get out of navas rav4 and jog towards the cop car waving my arms. the cop pulls right in front of me and stops. i start talking and the cop jumps out of his car and screams at the top of his voice. i was so fucking scared i dont even remember what he exactly said. but it was like "SHUT UP IM DOING THE TALKING NOT YOU." so he screams at me to not move and put my hands out on my sides like an airplane. he asks me who i am and what im doing here and he tells me that they got a 911 call from someone saying there was a intoxicated person running out into the streets at alamo bridge. then another cop car comes and pulls up behind me and after hearing out conversation hes like "ok this isnt the guy". i tell the first cop that me and natalie we're in the car and this severly intoxicated person tries to open our door. the other cop interrogates natalie and then he comes back and is like "yeah the girl is telling the same story" so the first cop asks me where this happened and i tell him where it was and all that and then i describe the guy and as im finishing, the other cop comes up and hes like , "is this the guy?" and points his flashlight towards the bridge at the very same stumbling jackass who tried to open our door while we we're in the car. the cop is like "you guys can hang out over there"

i walk over to nava and shes on the phone with my mom. melinda asks if im wearing my beanie. i wonder how that pertains to anything that had just happened in the last 10 minutes. so we watch from navas car as the cops make the guy walk in a straight line etc. we're their for like 5 minutes before navas dad comes. father nava gives natalie a huge hug and then gave me a "hi ross" that i thought for sure was a "you bastard, you subjected my daughter to harm" type of hi. so they put the guy in cuffs and put him in the back of the cop car. the 2nd cop comes over and talks to me about it. i told him the story again and then told him i was just trying to get the 1st cops attention. he said that the 1st cop thought i was the guy cuz whoever called the police said there was a guy ruinning into traffic and thats exactly what i did.

so then i go home. my mom is downstairs and she still doesnt really think it was a big deal. she has the whole attitude of "dude we live in fucking alamo". but seriously some guy tried to get in navas car. why? what was he gonna do. he was so drunk i dont think he could have done any harm but i didnt want to find out. the cop said he was on parole and was visiting his grandma. so just a thought. if you ever want to visit me, keep in mind that a crazy guys grandma is my neighbor.

oh and the nava family still likes me thank god. father nava even helped me fix my brake lights today. woo hoo.

so i learned a few things last night.
1. dont run at a cop car waving your arms.
2. when the cops say "put your hands in front of you", do it like an airplane, not a zombie.
3. publically drunk people are scary

so wow. ::shivers::
