So yesterday I got pulled over by a cop for the first time. Want to know why? Speeding?... No. Ran a red light? ...No. Rolling stop at stop sign? ...Don't be absurd.
Quote: "I pulled you over because of your lei. It's a windshield obstruction."
Yes, I was... Busted! For flowers!
The officer was referring to the (apparently illegal) scented lei I BOUGHT AT THE CARWASH which hangs (um, excuse me, used to hang...) from my rear-view mirror. And. He actually gave me a ticket.

I've learned a hard life lesson: flowers and driving don't mix.
I dream of a day when the children of tomorrow can live safely in a world free of dangerously pretty car accessories...
