I was driving home when bright blinding lights appeared on my rearview mirror. My heart was thumping in my chest as I pulled over. It took an eternity before the police officer appeared at my window.
"License and registration."
I fumbled for my purse and promptly handed him my health insurance card. POMCO. Fuck shit oops. Took it back and gave him the real thing. I fumbled into my glove compartment next and couldn't tell the difference between my registration and insurance card. Great. BIMBO anybody?
"Is there something with your eyes?"
"I'm not wearing my glasses, officer."
Also, silently in my head I'm screaming, "These smudges below my eyes, sir? They're from the lack of sleep and wearing cheap mascara after 12 hours at work, sir! Not drunkeness!"
"Follow my finger with your eyes."
He shines a blinding flashlight into my eyes.
ZOMG. Left. Right. Left Right. Leeeefft. Riiiight. Llllleeeeeeft. Rrrrrriiiiight. leftrightleftright. Phew. Clearly, you can see, I'm not drunk.
"You didn't signal back there."
"I'm sorry?" Does that work? I just 'stayed' in the rightmost lane that was going straight. Technically? Is that okay? I really don't know.
"Well, drive home safe."
I thank my lucky stars tonight.

I think he thought I was drunk. Maybe not signalling at 12am at night is a sign of drunkeness?
