Cops: The First Ingredient for the Perfect Morning

 Last night was my second night in our new house in Bossier. Today was my first experience with Bossier's finest. I was driving to work, passing the CenturyTel Center, when a motorcyle pulls me over! Needless to say, I find humor in everything, and I mean... everything, so I decided to joke around with him. He said that he was going to give me the benefit of the doubt and write me up for going 60 in a 45mph zone. Favor? What did make me feel better was seeing someone else get pulled over right in front of me. Awesome! Misery loves company. The cop told me to have a good morning. I said the same back and added, "by the way, I hope I never see you again". He laughed (Praise God).

After that, a sausage biscuit and a Diet Coke was definitely in order. I saw this commecial for Diet Coke, and that's exactly how I wanted to feel. Obviously.


Live like it's your party. Light it up. However, I made the mistake of getting stuck behind "weird-guy-who-has-to-get-out-of-his-car-to-pay-in-the-drive-thru".  Crap.

But today is a good day. Why? Because Jesus rocks, and I'm forgiven. Even when the cops pull me over for speeding (on accident) and the guy at McDonald's is mentally inept, I still have Grace. Prasie God.
