Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
JenP, I will hold you accountable.
People pay your tickets before they go to warrant and get your car inspected and registered. I swear that the call to borrow money from family or friend to do these things is better than calling to bail your ass out of jail. I SWEAR.
I am done with any attempts at being productive for the rest of the day. I am going to watch the Doctor and possibly bake.
Urgh. I think I have a late fee to pay on a ticket I paid the original amount on. Do they charge late fees on late fees? I have to sort through my mail.
Found my iPod! Jesus, flake.
I still have not found my iTouch since November. I think it may really be lost lost. hate that.
I just paid a parking ticket from 2006 because it came up on my credit report again!
Both my cars are overdue for smog checks. I paid the registration fees on time, but getting to the inspection station is a pain, and I don't know where the paperwork is for the one that's really very like close to a year overdue. I'll get the one that I have paperwork for done on Monday, though, I promise. Especially if someone nags me about it...
We're having a bit of a fuss because the city went to electronic parking meters (pay at a central station, get a ticket, put it someplace visible on the dashboard) and has recently made it possible for people to pay from their phones. Great, right? Except there's a glitch in the system (isn't there always?) and it turns out there's a delay between people paying from their phone and when the parking enforcement people can actually see that information. oops
As a result, a lot of people paid by phone and got parking tickets. Our big boss among them. It's getting a lot of news coverage and they're promising to get it fixed.
I also have to renew my passport! That's another $30. As far as I can tell, I just fill out the form and then mail them my passport book and they put in a new card and I get to keep everything else inside? What sorts of mailing bonuses should I use? Delivery Confirmation? Signature Confirmation?
Oh, balls, I have to go get a passport photo too. I meant to take one over the holiday.
Both my cars are overdue for smog checks.
oooh, thanks for the reminder, -t. I need to do that in the next three weeks as well.
Thank you, msbelle.
Also, dishes are done. Now I need to pack and hit the road.
I'm undoubtedly up shit creek for not doing my paperwork in lieu of registering my totalled car. But I can't work out how to file its liminal state. Maybe I should ask AAA. That's the sort of shit they're for, right?
Okay, V, why haven't you come to my desk? I did the "Oh, you're on hold?" mime dance pretty clearly. It said that you were coming to me, not that I was going back to you.
