Okay, so I was talking to Reid and Maggie earlier tonight, and Maggie was showing off her psychic ability (or what she calls "magic") and said, I bet Ruth is within 100 yds of you right now...and Ruth runs in at that exact moment, and tells me that Barb (girl from another floor) called her and said her car was dead and she was stuck at Snucks. So Ruth wanted me to come with her to jump-start Barbs piece of crap oldmobile (not as long or beastly as Maggies).

So we go, and when we get there we see that Barb parked in front of one of those cart racks, making it nearly impossible to get Ruths car close enough to hook up Barbs fricken 2ft long jumper cables. So we try to position Ruths car in different places for about half an hour--IN THE RAIN! *which was even harder, because Ruths battery is on the opposite side of the car than Barbs (right, and the other left) so eventuall this guy sees us directing Ruth around (she thought that Barb was lying and the whole shebang was arranged to test her driving skills) and asks us, "Are you guys just trying to jump the car?" And I was like ,"YES?" to excited at the prospect that this dude may have a porteable jumper box, WHICH HE DID!!

So this dude hooks it up, and Barbs car starts on the first try. So Ruth and wet Steph head back to the dorms, and search for a parking spot, where there were none. So Ruth decides to do flip a U-ey (do you know how long I sat here and debated how to spell that?) AT A 4-WAY STOP!!!! And just as we are flipped 180 degrees, who happens to be driving towards us like 2 ft ahead? A POLICE OFFICER!!! He just kinda waved, and we stopped freaking out. So then Ruth tries to park in a space about half the size of her car, and when that doesnt work, so she drives and does another U-turn....and then we get to the same 4-way stop as before, and she flips another one, before parking behind some car, before realizing she couldnt park there, and the reason it was open was because theres a giant half a block of driveway there.

So she drives in reverse down the street to another place that looked open. And it was...about half way empty, like 6 feet of empty space before the sign that says no parking past this point. So we were like, "hey, the majority of the car, would be in the legal zone, so go for it" so while Ruth is backing up shes like, tell me if I hit the curb, and I was like, "okay....oh, your on the sidewalk" Lol, and then again, "k, your almost on the curb..yup, your tire is rubbing against it right now", so then shes like, "Okay, now tell me to stop before I hit this car", so shes backing up, and backing up, and suddenly I'm like "Eeee! Ahhh!" THUMP! I guess Eee, and Ahh, arent the equivalent of shouting "STOP!" or "Car!"...so Ruth was slighty upset with me. But it was really funny.

So all in all I think we broke about 4 1/2 laws...not counting the illegal parking at the grocery store parking light while we tried to help Barb...oh and the half comes from the 1/3 of Ruths car that protrudes beyond the "No Parking Beyond This Point" sign..so maybe its more like 4 1/3...

Anyways, Keep Ya Head Up, and Stay Righteous!
