Ha. I knew it was coming; it was inevitable. Once it happened, I knew I would change my ways. I knew that the punishment would fit the crime, and I knew that I would change the error of my ways once I was caught.

Yeah, I got my first ticket ever - a SPEEDING ticket. It wasn't fair, really, barely even my fault. I just happened to be driving every so slightly too fast....

It was on a long, declining dip with an incline right away. I didn't apply the brakes on my way down, knowing that on the way up gravity would slow me down to an appropriate speed. But, to my misfortune, I was going (allegedly) 51mph in a 35mph zone, with a squad car sitting at the bottom of the dip.

"Do you know the speed along Dodge st.?"

"Um, no... 40mph?"

Yeah. It wasn't so good. I got off lucky though. I didn't have proof of insurance or registration, because I'm buying this car from my sister-in-law, so we're inbetween getting that stuff switched. He let me off from that, saying to get it taken care of. I can also take a (lame) class to get the speeding ticket removed from my record and the fine for the ticket abolished. But, the class did cost $85.00 and will last for two four-hour evenings. Yay.

Sorry that if I've not responded to everyones' comments, I only commit so much time to online-related activites, and most of that time is giving an update on my dull life.

Oh, dear. That is not so good. I hear the classes are a pain the butt. John had to do them.

Just take your brothers laptop for, uh, notes and make sure you have wireless connection during class. My brother got his first-ever speeding ticket while we were in Indy. He was pretty ticked off at the cop. Heh.

Are you making excuses??? Is that what I saw.....maybe my eyes are playing tricks?   51mph  sounds like you were just crawling along..... LOL  For some reason i can picture you speeding.... I don't know what gave me that idea!   BTW- I met your mom, Carrie (sp?) and Asher.... Shawn was there as well... but of course i knew him!  It is actually a LONG story.... Interesting.... yes you guessed correctly about who they were....  Don't worry, I like teasing....  Have a good day!  (Without speeding ...LOL)

Oh.... BTW I didn't write anything about taxes.. that was a girl named Sarah.... her comment was right after mine though...  Also, I understand about writing back after comments..... I just appreciate the updates now and again... That is good that it seems like you are setting a boundary for the internet.  I know I am tempted to be on it FAR too much.  "Pray without ceasing..."

Hehe...one time Johanna my sister got a ticket, so she had to go to see how much it costed, and she parked in a thirty minute parking spot, and the session lasted 2:00, so, yes, she got a ticket for getting a ticket. Poor thing!

I think that you should write a new entry.

Hey, whatever did you end up doing with the speeding ticket incident? Did you take the class?

Btw, Merry Christmas!!!

At least the ticket won't be on your record... how many times can you do that before they don't give you the option of taking a class?
