LIFE IS NEVER DULL----MELISSA WAS DOOOOZING OFF WHILE OVERNIGHT-- THE PUPS ARE OLD ENOUGH NO PROBLEM.. EXCEPT A PERSON DOSING.. DOES LOOK DRUNK-- SO SOMEONE ( FROM THE 513 AREA CODE ) CALLED ME AT 2:00 WAKING ME.. ETC-- NO HOUSE FIRE SO I WAS NOT PLEASED... THEN AT 4:00 ANOTHER CALL-- SOMEONE HAD CALLED THE IPSWICH POLICE AND I EXLAIINED ALL WAS OK... EXCEPT THEY HAVE TO INVESTIGATE-- SOOOOO... THE NEXT IS A KNOCK ON THE DOOR 2 GREAT BIG MEN IN DARK BLUE...ETC... HAD TO VISUALLY CHECK ON THIS PERSON WHO WAS "IN TROUBLE" SO MELISSA.. TERRIFIED CAME OUT.. GAVE HER NAME-- THEN THEY WANTED HER SS# SO SHE GAVE IT.. APPARENTLY THERE WAS A WARRENT FOR HER ARREST-- SOMETHING ABOUT A TRAFFIC STOP AND NOT GOING TO COURT.... I REALIZE THERE COULD BE MORE THAN THE TRAFFIC STOP... DOESN'T MATTER... YOU DON'T APPEAR AT COURT WHEN THEY WANT YOU THERER, YOU GET ARRESTED... I KNOW FROM PERSONAL EXPERIENCE...... BEEN THERE DONE THAT...
SO I WROTE THIE IN THE CAMERA COLUMN AND DUPE'D IT HERE...
THANK HEAVENS THIS IS THE USA...-- I KNOW HOW SHE WILL BE TREATED AND ALL WILL GO VERY LEGALLY -- SHE WILL BE KEPT WHERE THERE IS ANOTHER FEMALE OFFICER TO LOOK AFTER HER AND TRANSPORTED AROUND AND SHE WILL GO TO COURT.
IF YOU ARE GOING TO GET HAULED OFF BY THE POLICE I WOULD RATHER IT BE HERE THAN IRAQ...YOU ALL MAYBE DON'T KNOW THE STORY... BUT....
I CAME HOME FROM TH E OFFICE .. MIXED MYSELF A DRINK- AND THEN A SECOND.. AND TH EPOLICE CALLED... THEY HAD A WARRENT FOR MY ARREST-- I HAD NOT APPEARED IN COURT ABOUT A LEASH LAW VIOLATION... DIDN'T MATTER.. I HAD TO GO TO THE POLICE STATION. I SAID I WOULDN'T BECAUSE I HAD BEEN DRINKING AND WOUOLD NOT DRIVE...
SO THE POLICEMAN ON THE PHONE SAID HE WOULD HAVE TO SEND A CRUIZER TO PICK ME UP... SO I MIXED ANOTHER DRINK....3rd BUT WHO'S COUNTING... POLICE STATION IS ABOUT 20 MINUTES AWAY.... .. NICE POLICEMAN PICKED ME UP -- EVEN LET ME FINISH THE THIRD DRINK IN THE CRUZIER... I WAS VERY HAPPY... I WAS FINGERPRINTED AND MUGG SHOTTED AND PUT IN A CELL... WHEN THEY CALLED IN A FEMALE PERSON TO SIT WITH ME.. I FOUND OUT SHE WAS NOT MAKING THE MINIMUN WAGE AND BEGAN TO TELL THEPOLICE ALL ABOUT MINIMUM WAGE.. MY BAIL WAS $20-- AND I HAD ONLY $14 --THEN I ASKED HOW COME I HAD NOT BEEN OFFERED A PHONE CALL....
THE DESK SARGENT QUICKLY PRODUCED A PHONE AND SAID "PLEASE CALL SOMEONE" I THINK HE WANTED TO GET RID OF ME...LECTURING HOW UNDERPAID THIS BABYSITTER WAS... I NEEDED $6-- SO I CALLED THE FREIND CLOSEST TO THE POLICE STATION -- ANN- "WHY DO YOU NEED $6 AT THIS TIME OF NIGHT?" BAIL....
AND SHE SAID SHE THOUGHT SHE HAD $6 SOMEWHERE... BUT I WOULD HAVE TO COME GET IT...-- SO THEY GAVE ME BACK MY PLEASENT POLICEMAN AND WE DROVE TO A DRIVEWAY WHERE I SAID "TURN HERE" ... WHICH HE DID-- AND DRIVE FOR A SHORT DISTANDCE WHEN HE SLAMMED ON THE BRAKES AND SAID "HOLY SHOOT... WE ARE ON THE XXXXXXXX PROPERTY--- AND I SAID YES... THAT IS MY FRIEND WITH THE $6.. HE MADE SOME REMARK ABOUT PROBABLY SHE COULD COME UP WITH $6 AND DROVE ME TO "THE DOOR" THIS IS THE DOOR WHERE YOU CAN TELL IF SHE IS HOME-- BECAUSE IF SHE IS NOT HOME... SHE LEANS A 2X4 AGAINST THE DOOR TO KEEP IT SHUT- BEEN THAT WAY FOR YEARS...SO SHE GAVE ME THE $6... SOME IN CHANGE AND WE DROVE TO THE POLICE STATION .. AND THEN THEY TOOK ME HOME.. I WENT TO COURT THE NEXT DAY-- NO MORE PROBLEM..
BY THE TIME THAT HAPPEND TO ME, I WAS A HARDEND OLD LADY IN SEARCH OF SOME AMUSEMENT... BUT POOOR MELISSA-- SO WHATEVER ELSE IS INVOLVED..PLEASE-- KEEP YOU EYE ON THE FACT THAT SHE IS A GREAT OVERNIGHTER WHO LOVES THE PUPS AND TAKES GOOD CARE OF TEHM-- ANYTHING ELSE REALLY DOES NOT MATTER TO ME-- OR US...
SO GET THOSE CARDS READY AND SEND THEM TO ME HERE--- IF SHE NEEDS BAIL I WILL RUSH DOWN WITHTHE STACK OF $2 BILLS YOU HAVE SO CAREFULLY BEEN SENDING US.. WHAT BETTER USE FOR THEM????
GRACE GOT OVER 250 CARDS-- IF WE CAN'T SCRATCH UP AT LEAST 125 FOR MELISSA..., I WILL BE UPSET.
SHE HAS TO COME BACK HERE... WE HAVE HER CAR...
