When you get pulled over for gatorade.

I forgot I had gatorade on the roof of my car, and didn't realize till someone pointed it out as I left a Walmart parking lot (keep in mind he tried to point it out as he passed me in the actual parking lot but I assumed he was trying to flip me off and just kept driving past him, because my brain assumes everyone hates me on sight). At this point I calmly pull over into the grass seperating the different sides of the freeway and put it in. I thought I was in the clear until cop lights come on right as I put the car in drive. I calmly explain myself to the officer, and he seems calm and level headed about the whole thing. He checks my license but not the registration as he just quickly comes back to hand it back to me before saying "Also, you know your lights weren't on right?"



Luckily I didn't get a ticket, I just left feeling like a complete idiot, even having an awkward moment where we tried to pull onto the road at the same time and had to communicate with headlights to figure out who would leave first. 

What made it worse? I pulled into a Burger King after to stress eat (anxiety was pretty bad after that interaction even though I got off pretty lucky there) and as I pull my window down to order, sure enough the same cop is in the taco bell parking lot next door, and in my head he's staring straight at me like "Is this idiot gonna mess this up too?"

I...need a vacation because clearly my brain isn't working right.
