Wedding Weekend....and Police!!!

OK here is how my weekend has gone, the end is good!

Everything thus far has been pretty wedding themed it feels like, well except the whole getting pulled over thing, but ill get to that in a min. Last night was so fun to just hang out with "the girls" i know that sounds so dumb but everyone was decorating and getting ready for Julies bridal shower to day and then we all watched "27 Dresses" it was just a fun night of some quality time.
Today i woke up so early from the storms i guess, not really sure why i couldn't sleep because i normally never have issues with that. but i did none the less so me and Mom and Mimi all went to breakfast and shopping, then of course to Julies shower, that was lots of fun. after the shower there was then more shopping with mom followed by a movie, of course non other the "Maid of Honor" by the way i think i liked it more than 27 Dresses but i will say there were a few little awkward parts. Anyways so here is the interesting story of the night:

OK so after the movie i had to take mom back to her car at the mall, but first i had to get gas, so i went to the "cheap" (haha) place over by Wendy's so obviously i was needing to get from the gas station all the way across 2 lanes and into the turn lane to go straight to the mall. well as i was swinging out to get into the turn lane straight a man in the, we will say, older stages of life decides he too is going to get gas at the "cheap" gas station, well he then decides that my turn lane I'm moving quickly into is the same lane he wasn't to use. so here we are not headed head on for each other, i slightly freak and swerve to the right in the other lane so once he also swerves around me i try to get back into the turn lane but I'm at such and awkward angle I'm like half in the straight lane half in the turn lane. now i have all these people mad at me because they cant go straight on their green light. so just when i think I'm gonna get the turn signal and get out of every ones way, it skips me! yes so i don't know what to do at all I'm still blocking everything! so mom decides to give me some motherly driving advise and say " when the other lanes clear you just need to go ahead and turn left so you don't get hit" "but mom its RED" "well that's better then getting hit maybe" "alright fine, your right" ...... i turn.......i then say "hope that there is not police around" well.....i was not even fully turned when i see the lights come on, i mean seriously he must have been right behind me, and of course i was listening to mom and not looking for cops. so my heart is just pounding so hard at this point since i have just almost had a head on wreck and now am being pulled over for running a RED light right in front of a cop with my mother in the car, because she said to!!! so of course he gets out with his little flashlight in my face and i hand him my licence, and i say "excuse me, do you think i could explain to you why i just ran that light.....?" he says "haha, go ahead" i think he could tell this was going to be a long story. so i then tell him everything that had just happened, as calmly as i think i could at this point. my mom then chimes in as if my rambling wasn't enough at that point. i finally finished my story with, "man this must just sound like a whole lot of crap, but it truly did happen and i promise i don't just run red lights for fun, i really don't mind waiting" pause....... "OK" he handed me back my licence and i was on my way!!! oh my i could finally breath! mom goes, "that was an adventure" well your telling me! anyways the whole way home i seriously just could not believe what had just happened. and there were police all over the place, something must be going on???? hmmm anyways i thought that was worth blogging about, although I'm sure alot of people stopped reading it a while ago, so goodnight! and thank you nice police man!
