Here I am pictured with the brand new summons issued to me by the New York City Police Department this evening. Guess I should have known better than to ride my bike on the sidewalk while a swarm of police vehicles hit the streets of Bed Stuy looking for someone who was definitely not me. I mean, I know the cops are busy, but for the sake of keeping the peace, I'm glad they still had time to pull me over (on my bike - awesome!) on Myrtle Ave. on a Sunday night at 9 pm during a rainstorm. Seriously? I've interacted with all kinds of police officers, but this was the very first time I have had the pleasure of being asked, "Is there a warrant out for your arrest?!" by an agitated man in a uniform shouting to be heard over the rain. For confirmation that this situation was in fact ridiculous, I looked over to the yelling cops' partner, who nonchalantly rolled his eyes to commiserate. How could I be mad at these guys? We all have our moments, and I'm sure acting grumpy is low on a cops' list of concerns. And to be fair, much thanks to said officers for not impounding my bike or causing further hassles. If you guys want to stop by later for some soup and a hug, I'd be more than happy to host New York City's finest.
Love,

wait, there isn't a warrant out for your arrest?
The warrant has been nullified thanks to digital librarian database retooling skills.
