The Case for Crying
Do you know what is pissing me off right now? The fact that the woman who hit me did not get a ticket. Not even a little 'following too close' slap on the wrist. Nuthin'. Nada.
When I was 17, I rear ended a big truck with my little car while making a poor lane change. Because we were headed up a hill, my car ended up under the truck. I was injured and taken to the hospital. The others were fine. And the police officers came into the room where I was getting my x-rays to give me a big old nasty 'driving without due care and attention' ticket.
What? Should I have cried and sobbed? More? Should I have had a female cop like this lady did?
Why are the rules different?
It's pissing me off.
Yes, I know, the important thing is that I'm ok and my son is ok and my baby is ok.
