Erin, if you can stand the squirminess of explaining your financial situation to complete strangers, it might be worth going in or writing a letter to ask for a reduction in the ticket fee. At least, I know that San Francisco has a lot of stupidly punitive ticket hardassery and yet even so will sometimes write down or off excess fees for people who really need it. And $600 is a crazy amount. That's like, what, half a mortgage payment? A month's worth of groceries? A month of child support or daycare or a year's worth of kid clothes? Tie it to something concrete and pressing in your lives that any sane person would agree has to be a priority.

JZ, I have NO PROBLEMS doing that, and that is a great idea. Thanks

How would you feel about Onerous Task Support Group Hour?

Count me in. I can deal with that ticket,and oh, so many other money related things.

Daniel, I am so sorry for your family's loss.

OK, FB test concluded.

I couldn't see any posts by L'Obscure while I was awaiting confirmation, or once she had ignored me.

Also, even after she ignored me, my request was still showing as awaiting confirmation, so I had to cancel the request and resend. I hope she'll finally accept.

::bats eyelashes::

Also, there are many, many Erin [LastName]s out there.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

lesson learned: if your posts are filtered to friends only, no one sees them whilst awaiting confirmation. And i have a very common name :)

I knew that, though. Some of my posts are just set to "Everyone." I fairly well don't care if the world can see that I'm happy Tim is vacuuming the bedroom.

You mean you specifically set that on a post, or it's your default?

Note: If I had to remember to filter specific posts, I'd go crazy, so I wanted to make sure the privacy defaults worked.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Think of the dust bunnies on Facebook!

Watching the Nova show on dogs. Turns out, the kitties are NOT PLEASED. Too much barky bark.

Art Crawl!!!

I want them to do a similar study on cats - you know, about the left eye thing.

And thanks everyone for the birthday wishes. I'm feeling pretty good despite my great age and decrepitude.

Better decrepitude than dreckitude.
