At first, I thought I only came home this weekend for my mom's cooking.
But then my brother's started their comic routine.
Well, yeah, I did miss my family. And my brothers impromptu comedy act. Listening to them quote Monty Python.
I got off of work at 10:30PM, and left for home at 11:15PM. I drove for a good hour, then, unexplainably, the road, which had been empty, came to a stop with bumper-to-bumper traffic. As everyone slowly moves forward, I begin thinking there's an accident up ahead, seeing multiple flashing blue lights.
Moving forward, I see three state troopers standing in the left lane, which has been shut down. Then I see the "Sheriff's Checkpoint" sign in front of them. Obviously, the guy behind me in traffic didn't want to talk to the troopers. The vehicle behind me quickly pulled a u-turn across the grass median, closely followed by a South Carolina state trooper and two Sumter County Sheriff's Deputies.
After showing the trooper my information and him inspecting my vehicle, we were back on the road, and got home around 2 AM.
I was able to go to the beach this weekend, too, which was cool.
Then there was the BBQ at a friend's house. I think between the BBQ and mom's cooking, I ate enough to sustain me for a month of fasting.
