Happy Monday!

I live 1.77 miles away from work. How much trouble could I get in driving that each day?

I got stopped for going 53 in a 35 this morning. :(

Do you try and argue your way out of that scenario? Do you say anything at all? Do you just politely hand over your registration, license and insurance and just look guilty?

Officer: Did you know you were going 53 in a 35 zone?
Me: No. The roads were empty and I just wasn't paying attention

That probably was NOT the right approach...

Sorry about that Erin! Totally sucks! If it makes you feel any better, I got a $200 ticket for making an illegial U-Turn after leaving Sara Rodgers house in Scottsdale last week. :-( Too bad you don't live here and we could take traffic school together! lol

Apparently I'm very good at it...but I don't like to brag...

No fun! I hate tickets and I hate being pulled over. The whole heart racing thing is no fun!

Sorry to hear about your ticket! I always marvel at the dumb questions police ask... "why where you going so fast?" how does one answer this? "I don't know officer I was just feeling the need for speed!"
