So I was on my way to work yesterday morning when I was pulled over by a police officer just minutes from arriving at work.  I knew I wasn’t speeding because I had already determined I was more than 20 minutes early and actually made myself drive slower to enjoy the time before I arrived.

Turns out my headlight was out.  I was relieved thinking that I would just have a warning.  However, I was stunned to find the officer handing me a $130 citation for defective equipment.  He stated it would be dismissed if I could show it was fixed within the next 10 days.  That’s great and all – but I’m still shocked that I received a ticket.  It turned my great mood into one that wasn’t so pleasant.

Fortunately, I was able to contact Linda to buy me a replacement and was able to replace it upon arriving home from work last night.

Now I just need to get back to Lansing to prove that I’m no longer defective…
