Cheese With Your Whine?
9.12.2005
Oh, so THAT'S why!Here in the Lone Star State, it's not actually illegal to talk on a cell phone while you drive. Or at least they're not yet allowed to ticket you for it. After tonight, I understand why that is going to change in the near future.
I'm very absent minded, especially when driving a route I drive every day, e.g., to and from work. Tonight, I was driving home, minding my own business talking to Kellie on the phone, and I rear-ended the guy in front of me. Yep, I ran right smack into the back of his white Impala with my black car. I have no clue how it happened. I guess I was looking at something else, and just wasn't thinking.
I'm sure he almost shit his pants when he looked in his rear view mirror and saw the front of my car all banged up. (This from a hit and run two years ago in the parking lot of a bar at 3:30 a.m.). I can only imagine the horror and the dread of getting out of the car and facing what his car looked like if mine was that bad.
Fortunately for both of us, there was only a small black smudge. I went ahead and gave him my name and number and told him to call me if he decided to do anything about it. That's one way to give you name and number out to good looking single guys!
Sheesh.
