If that's the case then it seems you got away incredibly crap-free given how many of the lines you did were 'unlikely' at the time you did them.

It's a lot easier to plan for a backpacking trip when you figure out the only things you really need are water and not dying of heat or cold.

My daughter was working at the Dam Brewery in Dillon CO. We flew out to visit her in Colorado. One of my favorite musicians Tony Furtado's band was rocking the house and a super fun night ensued. His base player was also Jimi Hendricks base player and we bonded at the bar between sets. The wife and daughter went back to the hotel to settle in and I stayed to party until the bar closed.
I am not sure how I ended up with the rental car. Our hotel was about a quarter mile away just under the freeway. Easily within walking distance on a cold winter night. After raging at the Dam Brewery all night, I got in the car and drove to the hotel. As I pulled into the parking lot of our hotel the lights of the local CHP lit up behind me. Why are you pulling me over, I asked the officer. "You just ran two stop signs and a red light", he replied.
I proceeded to tell him how we just arrived from California and we were so excirted to be seeing my daughter for the first time in several months."You just arrived from California tonight? Have you been drinking, he asked. Oh Yes I replied we were so excited to be here. OK step out of the car. If you pass this test you can go straight to your room. If you fail I will take you to the station and book you for DUI.
This is when I went into climbing mode, on lead, at the crux move. He did the pencil test asking my eyes to follow his pencil. Then he had me walk backwards and count backwards from 20. I think this is how it went. I was so focused and said to myself, you got this, Crux Move no Elvis leg now. At the end of my test I was sent to my room. That is when I really got the Elvis leg thinking how stupid it was to be driving in this condition.
