Prom = Bad Omen
Mark left for a day of motorcycling with friends this morning at 9am. I knew he was worried about taking off and leaving me alone because Lydia hadn't slept well and I was tired. So I put on my best happy face and sent him on his way wanting him to have some fun. He called me at noon and said he was gonna be later than expected ((which was 2pm)) I told him all was good at home......I felt much better after showering and he didn't need to hurry back. So I continue on with my day with the girls. At 4pm, I get another call saying they're on the way home so at this point I was expecting him around 5pm. At 6pm I hear an ambulance rushing up the canyon and decide to call him. He apologised for being late and said that things were taking longer cause some one hit his BIKE ((I was thinking in a parking lot)) and they had to get a trailer for the bike...at 6:30pm in he walks with his braced, mangled leg and a lil smirk on his face. This is the point where I was informed the call at 12pm was only shortly after a 17yr old kid in a brand new Subaru ran a red light and hit my husband on his bike sending him on a matrix fly through the air in an intersection. Luckily several factors and a helmet kept him from any serious injury his legs pretty beat up though. Oh and get this...the kid was going to PROM!!! Seriously...I will not allow my children to drive to prom or drive on any prom day.

WOW! That sneaky Tork! I guess I probably would have done the same thing. I'm glad to hear he is ok! Tell that sucker to give me a call back!
Glad he's ok and not hurt worse. :)
Scary!
Oh my goodness!!! Is there anything you need? I say just don't let your kids ever ride motorcycles. Call me or email me I don't have your # anymore. I will bring you dinner some night.
Poor Mark. how is he and his leg?
I get a little nervous every time J takes his bike out just because other drivers don't pay attention. I am so glad Tork is okay!
Have Markus look up the meaning of "sin of omission". Men don't have to call and that's o.k., but if they called and we said "I don't care" we would be bad wives. By not calling, Walker boys say the same thing-they don't care that we know. Or they are immature and act like they can't tell their Mommy that they did a no-no. Paul did the same *#@! thing when he lost his finger. I'm still hurt. And what else are they not sharing???
And maybe Proms aren't the problem. Maybe it's spoiled rich kids and their new SUV's. What does a kid need with all space anyways.
