Argh!!!!!!!! I was called early this morning by the local gym to teach a kickboxing class at 9:00. I am on call as a substitute kickboxing instructor. It pays very well and it is quite different to teach at a gym then at the Tae Kwon Do school. The regular teacher had a miscarriage the day prior so was not feeling well.
It was last minute so I tied my hair up, put on the sweats and grabbed my gloves and drove to the gym.
I drive past a police car on my right and then glanced in my rear view mirror to see flashing lights and was truly surprised that it was me he was pulling over. I was speeding???
"License, registration & insurance card please"....
"Yes Sir"
"You do realize you were going 42 in a 25 mile an hour road"
"I was? ... so sorry"
"Where may I ask are you off to?" - I can see him looking at my boxing gloves on the seat beside me.
"Well I am teaching a kickboxing class in about 10 minutes" ....
The police office puts his hands up and backs away from the car..... "Oh don't worry Ma'am you're not getting a ticket but just a warning. Please drive safely and slowly to your destination"
"Yes sir" ... Thank you!!"
WHEW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Great Big Sigh of Relief!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
