I am less than amused.

Its 1115 PM, there is a fire on one side of the street. There is smoke everywhere, its snowing and there is fog. I start my car with my electric car starter. I wait 10 min. Mind you there are countless firemen and cops hanging around. I get into my car. I slowly back out of the driveway because they are ambling about the car.

I drive down the road. I get stopped by the "police fireman." who know there was such a thing. His fatness rolls over to my car and tells me. "Do you know what you just did. You just ran over the hose. What were you doing? Didn't you see it there?"

I said I didnt. I said I was sorry. I said I was trying to go home and leaving one way because the fire was on the other side. He told me I could get a ticket. This was my fault. Didn't I care? Who did I think I was? I could have punctured the hose. Not to move cuase he was getting the cops.

WTF.

So my parents come out and are pissed. One fireman is laughing cause he thinks its a big joke. The fatman is rolling down the road. I'm like..seriously? Really?

The cop comes by, mother is anger. Pa is more so. The cop is like *sigh* what happened. I told him. He nodded, didn't seem like he wanted to give me the ticket. Wrote it up anyway. Told me to go, plea the case, tell them I couldnt see anything. He also said to present the pictures my mother took.

Yippeee.

I told the fatman to remove the cones and I told him thanks. He said it was "my fault." I told him I said I was sorry and he escalated the situation.

I swear volunteer firemen have an inferiority complex.

WTF

Divia: that blows chunks!

We almost had a worse thing tonight, Jasper was acting odd and his right back leg seemed to not be working right, but after a few minutes he seemed fine, we think his leg fell asleep, whew!

Yeah I was not pleased. Oh and then the firemen were saying they wanted David's name(step fathers) cause they would charge him for the hose if there was anythign wrong with it????
