Court

December 7th snuck up on me. Tomorrow is my court date for the parking ticket I got while feeding a thanksgiving dinner to homeless youth. (How could the police be so insensitive!) 

Obviously I'm not going to court over not paying a parking meter, but I haven't paid my $36 fine yet. And my court date is tomorrow at 9:30 am. So it's too late to mail it in, and I have to have it paid before 9:30 or something bad will happen, I'm sure. I've never had a parking ticket or any other run-in with the law before, so I'm a little nervous, for whatever reason, about not having the fine paid in time and not showing up in court and having a warrant out for my arrest. Over a parking ticket. 

I know, my imagination runs wild if I don't keep it under control. 

Has anyone ever gone to court over a parking ticket? What would be the point? They really should give you more time to get around to mailing in the fee, too. 15 days really isn't enough. Why am I so disorganized?!?

Happy December!
