Facebook Note from 7/12/2011 ~ "The Big Truck Story"

I'm almost too embarrassed to share this one.......hahahahahaha WOW!
I take off for mom's and as I approach the exit for 474, I glance up and see cones down the middle of the road and a sign with an arrow to the right that reads "TRUCKS". 'Oh geeze', I think and I pull over to the right side of the cones. Then, I have to stop because there is a big grain truck thing in front of me. I'm sitting there behind him and can see these guys with orange vests up ahead and a trailer on the side of the road. I continue to listen to my music and text a little.
A guy with an orange vest walks up to my window, I think, 'uh oh - did he see me texting?' and roll down my window.
"May I help you?" he asks laughing
I am confused a bit, but am also glad he doesn't seem to care about my phone, and say, 'Huh? I just followed the sign for trucks'.
He starts laughing a bit harder and as another guy with an orange vest walks up he says, "We are weighing trucks".
Me, 'okay???' and I kind of put my arm out showing him that I am indeed in a truck.
As he holds his arms out like men do when they're lieing about the size of the fish they just caught, he says, "Honey, we weigh BIG TRUCKS".
For a slight second I was going to take offense to that, but then I pause, think, pay attention to the fact that there is a semi in back of me...and of course the grain truck in front of me that is beginning to pull away.
'Ohhhhh boy, I so should have gotten that one.' and then I start laughing. Because he and his orange vested buddies are now all around my "truck" laughing too.
Me: 'I'm not really sure how to get out of here, do you think he'll let me back up?'
Orange vest guy hanging out of the trailer, "Let her weigh!"
Orange vest guy just hanging around laughing, "The tracks are set too wide"
Orange vest guy who originally talked to me........still laughing
Orange vest guy hanging out of trailer, "Scoot 'em together".
Me: 'Sorry'
They move the tracks closer together.....The orange vest guy hanging out of the trailer waves me forward.
ME: 'I don't think they are close enough."
A BIG truck honks from behind.........pppffttt
The original orange vest guy says, "you'll be fine, let's go" and he walks along the side of my truck, holding his hand in my window (which I thought was nice of him - except he is still laughing).
My-size trucks zooming by are honking and pointing.....
I get "up" there and the guy on the trailer says, "All right!"
One orange vest guys start clapping.....
I don't know if I should laugh more or cry.......
Me: "He's not going to yell out my weight is he?"
Original orange vest guy, "Nah, you're all set - where do you live?"
ME: "Why, am I in trouble? I know I need to pay better attention!"
Orange vest guy hitting the side of my truck once he's walked me back down the little track thingy's says, "No, you're not in trouble, be safe".
Then they wave me through and wave at me......and so does the semi truck driver behind me
