dont get caught by the cops

So... Yeah tonight I canvassed the campus (to canvass means to throw up fliers in a blanket pretty much) and then I had time around 10:30pm to go night climbing in my tree. That's pretty normal for me. I hung my purse on a branch and up I go. I'm chilling up there and Ian Morrison comes along on his blades and I call his name and he calls me down so we can chill and talk about God and all this insanity of 'hate crimes' happening lately. So we're chilling on the benches in the center of the walkway next to the my willow and I turn and I see all these crazy cops coming along w/ two girls. I was like "Hey Ian, check it out - there's like 5 cops there. I wonder what's going on." Ian says it probably has to do with them making sure no more hate crimes are happening. But then they all are approaching my tree and I'm like "what the..." and they (5) get out their flashlights and are all up ons with my tree!!! Looking for me!!! I'm like "Frick Ian they're looking for me!!! What do I do!?" and he tells me not to go over but then my purse was still in the tree so I'm like what do I do what do I do!? He says they won't bother it and don't go over unless they do. Well, sure enough, the friendly dude gets up in the tree and chucks my purse down and so I run over and say "Hey, that's mine, may I have it?" and one of the copers was like "Why were you in a tree?" and I tell him I like it and why not? So he asks if I have ID and I say sure and he says "Good, can I see it." WTCrap!? So I give it to him and he writes my name down and asks for my bday and I tell him and he's all writing and I say to them "Yeah you can look me up I'm the chick who burned her cookies in the micro last year" trying to lighten it up because I'm worried. I ask if I'm in trouble and they say no. STILL CONFUSED! He says he can't prohibit me from being up there but he's strongly reccomending that I not do that again because I'm a liability and what if I fall. So I tell them that I've been climbing that tree for 2 years now and I know it like the back of my hand and I never fall. He says "Yeah but one slip... And I don't want to be called out here to pick you up from the ground." So I don't want to worry about it more so I just say that I hear what he's saying and they say okay and they all go and I turn to Ian and we go back and sit down. He's like "Dude, those girls totally ratted you out to the cops!" and I'm like "I have no idea what just happened!" Funny thing is that I had called Tricia when I was in the tree and invited her for a night climb. She arrived shortly thereafter and said Shawn was coming too. So within 10 minutes of this insanity there were three, instead of one, hippies in the tree. HAHAHA!!! I'm just worried now that tomorrow someone is going to see my fliers and call it a hate crime even though it has nothing to do with something like that and the cops are gonna come find me again. Effin' a, Cotton, effin' a.
