jail house rock

it was just a regular weekend at the camden waterfront. i was working for the council at the WXPN XPoNential Music Festival. i wasn't super excited A) to be in camden and B) to have the "public face" on for a good 6 hours. i'll be perfectly honest and say that one whiff of "fair food" and i was instantly in a better mood! the weather was threatening rain and the humidity was a little high for my liking, which means above 20%.
as i approached our booth, i stopped to take a look at the line-up for the evening. tower of power. wait. what?!? tower of freakin power. i L-O-V-E these guys. love them. can it get any better than that? yes. add some fried oreos and call it a beautiful night!

and yes, i'm aware that i was born in the wrong decade.

paris, eat your heart out


reasons to get arrested:

dui
theft
drug possesion
domestic violence
unpaid parking tickets

i have paid my debt to society for one unpaid parking ticket. aren't you glad i spent a night off the streets. i'm sure your children slept soundly for that 90 minutes. yes, there were handcuffs involved. yes, the back seat of the patrol car was in desperate need of a lysol wipe. or two. yes, i was attached by my right wrist to a "booking table" for fear i might flee. yes, the only thing i could do was laugh. hysterically.

$60 later, i'm a free woman. god bless the judicial system for having mercy on my soul.
