Wow, it has been a long time. And I mean that sincerely--a very long time! What have you all been doing without my blog to keep you mentally stable?
The trail is going to be soon. In three days, as a matter of fact. And yes, I practiced running away from cops already, so in case anything 'happens' I am prepared. It was just today, actually. I was swinging in the city, wearing my thermal costume, since it's December already, when it started snowing. I like snow, I do. It's white and fluffy and it tastes good. But when there's snow on the roads, that means they're slippery. And New Yorkers aren't the best drivers.
So I heard the accident from three blocks away. It sounded pretty nasty. I hurried up and got to the scene, where there was a four-car pile up. I made sure no one was hurt, getting all the passengers out safely. It was when I was checking for injuries when a group of police officers run over. They're like, "Freeze, Spider-Man! Put your hands over your head!"
I looked at them and bluntly asked, "Why?"
"You caused this accident. Your swinging distracted the drivers and--"
"Oh, gimme a break already! Jeez! When will you people cut me some slack?" I threw my hands up in the air in an uncaring motion. "Okay, I'll let you bunkies take it from here. Little to no injuries--hopefully the guy in the black Ford has insurance." I nodded to the people, told them all I hoped they were okay, turned to eye the officers, and then took off on my way.
Okay, so maybe it wasn't great practice from running from the cops. But every little bit counts, right?

Yeah, that wasn't fair to accuse you of causing the accident. I mean--come on! Really? You're my hero! My hero doesn't cause accidents!

Just ignore it like you always do. The officers were probably just bored, anyway.
