What The Friday?!









A Police Officer knocked on my door yesterday.
!!!!what did I do????

He asked me if we used our basketball hoop...
strange...

It's an old hoop, with a hand-painted Ohio State 'O' with some buckeyes.
I was going to re-paint/touch it up, because it is fading.
..but I told him that "no, we do not use it often."


Then, he proceeded to tell me that is girlfriend used to live here, and her father painted the backboard.
'He is no longer with us..'
It's her 40th birthday this week and he would love to give her the backboard.
How unbelievably sweet!
Thoughtful!!

...I can tell he's not married yet...

My WTF moment is not that a police officer is confiscating our backboard...

It's:

Nobody ever got ME a basketball backboard.
Well, my parents bought us kids one, but my cousin tried to do a slam dunk and broke it...
and nearly ripped off his hand in the process...
but still.
what the friday?

Oh, that's so sweet of him!

My Hubs would probably have told him he had to pay us for it.

That is so random, yet so sweet! I think you should ask for a backboard for Christmas.

I was trying to link up, but you have it set up so submissions don't open until the 21st. I mean, I can wait a week, but I figured that was a mistake :)
