"Get some leaves!!"
Gosh where did the month go? I don't remember writing April days in single digits, now we are almost half-way to May!?
Not much is new here, I saw a really bad wreck on the way here. Saw it, shoot, I had front row seats to it. It took some Matrix driving to avoid being in it. An SUV over-corrected while changing lanes, cut across three lanes of traffic on 114 in Southlake, nearly clobbered me, slammed into the divider and rolled 3 times(?). I couldn't really tell cause so much dirt was kicked up, I couldn't see the vehicle.
Pretty scary stuff, I was the one who called 911. That is scary to, has anyone ever had to do that?
"911 Emergency."
"Yeah, I need to report a wreck. This SUV rolled on 114 heading North. Someone is probably hurt. The sun was in my eyes, so I couldn't really see exactly what happened. I was lucky not to be in it myself! I didn't have any hands on the wheel cause I stopped by Bueno to get one of those 'Big Ole Burritos' and..."
"I'm sorry sir, did you say you didn't have any hands on the wheel cause you were eating?"
"Well, I was using my knees, but that was only because one hand was holding the burrito while the other was changing DVDs in my laptop to watch another movie. Oh yeah, I was also dialing my wife on the cell phone."
"Sir, is everyone okay?"
"Well, I was until I spilled my big soft-drink all over my legs. That and the Rangers are 2 - 6 right now. Did you see the game last night? I mean you would think they could get some pitching...."
"Sir, what city are you in?"
"I haven't told you? Southlake."
"Ok, I think we can handle it from here." (a.k.a. you are a moron)
If there weren't any kids crying and a mother cussing out whoever cut her off, I would have asked the 911 Dispatcher to "get some leaves!" but I just wasn't feeling it.
Be safe on the road. And make sure you tell the 911 operator which city you are in if you have to make an emergency call.
Love ya'll

Great post. Very entertaining, yet scary. What does get some leaves mean?
