So.
Apparently the town of Falmouth has designated me my very own police officer. I wonder if my taxes will go up because of that?
Let me explain. 
<------ This is my ghetto ride. It's ghetto for many reasons, but now it's even MORE ghetto because of the DAMAGE to the front end. The DAMAGE occured while I was shopping for groceries to make a delicious dinner for my family.
When I came out of the store, a man approaches me as I am walking to my car. He asks if the car belongs to me. Um, yeah, why? Did you think maybe it belonged to Mariah Carey and you could score her autograph? I said "yessssss"... then he asks if my car was DAMAGED when I went into the store. I said "Noooooooooooo". He points to the front end of the car, and tells me that he witnessed a woman parken in a white van beside me pullout of her parking space and hit my vehicle. Then she GOT OUT OF HER VAN, LOOKED AT MY DAMAGED VEHICLE, AND DROVE OFF. She had actually commented to a young couple who were passing by "You didn't see anything, right? I didn't hit that car, right?" before hopping back in her vehicle and LEAVING THE SCENE OF A FREAKING ACCIDENT.
What she didn't know was that three different sets of people took down her license plate number and vehicle description, and the young kids she so stupidly took the time to talk to totally ratted her out.
This is where my own personal police officer comes into play.
Maybe you remember this post from December. Well, Officer Brand and I had the chance to meet again in the Family Foods parking lot when I called to report the heinous crime that had been committed against my ghetto ride. It wasn't exactly a social visit. Niether have the other two visits with Officer Brand been of a very social nature. I guess at least we're keeping it consistent...
Long story short, I had yet ANOTHER RUN IN with the same officer that has previously a) pulled me over in my own driveway, lights and sirens a'blazing, and b) woke me up at 4 am to let me know that my car has been busted in to. I can only imagine what could possibly happen next....
Anyway, all I could think of after the whole thing was over was Dane Cook. (watch kiddos... a *bit* of language involved here ;)
Seriously.
So sorry to hear about your "hit and run". It's nice to know some strangers had your back though! On another note, remind me not to eat my soup while reading your blog. I nearly spewed (sp?) it all over the keyboard when I read the crack about scoring Mariah Carey's autograph!!!

Sorry your car got bashed! Too bad for her, what goes around comes around and now she'll get in even more trouble. Go Karma! Love that clip too! Dane Cook rocks.
