This is Really Going to Cost You

I got a warning for talking on my cell phone while driving Friday night. So I've been trying not to do that anymore. But when my phone rang today, I answered it, and immediately proceeded to the $100 ticket, the warning for not having car insurance documentation, and, worst of all, being late to pick up my charges. I was tempted to blame my friend for calling me at 3:20 but he hasn't seen his son for a long time. So I'm just going to have to stop driving and talking, or get a chauffeur.

I've always been proud that I had never been late to pick up M. I've been there for her, day in and day out, year after year. I know this doesn't really mean anything because my mom was late and she's always been there when I needed her. But it still makes me sad.
