Then the rest blur but they let my room mate come and drive me back to our dorm (I called pulled over right behind it). Next morning I look at the ticket and because I was so drunk I got a reckless. Now explain to me if I didn't get pulled over for swirving or speeding, how was I driving reckless? The system sucks. Now I have to pay off 660 dollar fine. Which isn't a lot really, but they're expecting me to pay it by friday and as a full time student and only working part time I don't have it. The lady was nice though and said I could just pay off part of it and we'd work something out. Still... **** the pooolice.

You're lucky he didn't haul you in for DUI. That's a nice suspended license and a nifty little mark on your record that never quite goes away. Jeez Holly, I can't preach to you since I did that sort of thing many, many times myself in the distant past but you coulda killed yourself or someone else. I've got no problem getting totally hammered but lock the keys up next time, okay?

There's no glory in being ejected through a windshield and into a telephone pole. When I was a fireman, I spent too many Saturday nights scraping nice kids like you off the street. And I could never figure out what to say to the parents who would show up at the scene screaming 'WHY???'
