Drive by Shooting!!

I was in a drive by shooting. You don't believe me? Here's the story.

So this past weekend was my cousins' bachelorette weekend that I threw for her. There were five of us at the Isle of Palms in South Carolina. On Saturday night we decided to go out to dinner at RB's in Mount Pleasant. Mount Pleasant is an upscale town, a nice area. Anyway, we were on our way to dinner, the five of us piled into a new Toyota Sequoia. We were stopped at a red light, talking and laughing -- you know, having a good time. When suddendly, POP CRASH, the back window explodes into the vehicle. We all scream and duck, well, except for my bright ass who looks around for someone with a gun or something Then I yell, GO! Just lay on the horn and GO!!! We managed to get out of the street into a strip mall parking lot. I pull out my phone and call 911 while Lageree called her dad. The police show up and are crawling over the car. People driving by and staring while the five of us are huddled and trying to stop Karene's hysterical crying/laughing. I should mention that Lageree is 3 months pregnant and was the one driving. (The Sequoia is her father's.) Anyway...the police find a scorch mark on the ceiling in the vehicle that was made by a bullet. There you go, A BULLET!!! They didn't find the bullet but say that it could have been knocked out of the car or falled in the vents. We were very lucky, any other angle and it would have hit someone or gone through the front windshield. Had we been in a car, the window would have showered us in the backseat or the bullet would have hit someone. The police said that if it had, hit someone that is, it would have killed them. It would have hit the back of someone's head. Just imagine how lucky you would have to be to not get hit when there are three sitting across in the back seat. Anyway, CSI and all...this all lasted about an hour. Then we pilled back in the Sequoia went back to the hotel, unloaded the golf clubs from the trunk to the hotel front desk, so no one would steal them. Pilled into another car and went to dinner.

So, that's my story. Much more of this and I'll think the wedding is cursed.

Just realized another reason for you to move back...

No, not the shooting -- that could happen anyway -- it's the names.

Lageree, Karene, and your cousin...not a single one of them has a normal name.

The longer you stay there the more you're gonna think names like Stacey or Pooklebutt are normal.
