Valid Excuse

Dear Owner of the Red Grand Prix,

I am terribly sorry for the small dents and scratches along the back bumper and side of your car. I really didn't mean to crash into it ... it just came out of nowhere! Sure, it wasn't moving, but I swear it just came out of nowhere. Okay, okay, so not only was it not moving, it was parked, but I STILL swear it just came out of nowhere!

However, I do have very good reasoning for why my car might have gotten into your car's personal space. You see, I was driving away from Danette's house with a exquisite cupcake in my hand. Well, I'm sure we all know how hard it is to peel off the wrapper and eat the cupcake with just one hand, so I had to use both hands. No problem, I've got the technique down with using my trusty knee to guide the steering wheel. Buutttt....you know how sometimes when a crumb drops in your lap and you just can't let it go??? Well, I then went searching for that little tidbit of flavor and when I looked up... BAM! There you were.

Again, I'm sure you can completely understand how this little mistake happened. I do feel a little bit bad, so I'm leaving you half of my cupcake. Okay, well, maybe just the last bite of my cupcake. I'm thinking since I was so generous with my treat, we can just call it even. Right?

Sincerely,
Lane

{Okay, so I didn't REALLY run into a parked car, but it was super close. I looked up just in time to steer clear of it, but it definitely was a close call. But still, had I ACTUALLY hit a parked vehicle, I wouldn't have felt as dumb if I could blame it on my cupcake. Which, by the way, was DELICIOUS. Thanks Danette!}
