Parking escapades

"Awesome": Getting a $50 parking ticket for having expired plates, two days before the car gets shipped away for good.

"Awesome": My options are 1) continue driving with expired plates and hope no one notices until I get a place in Pennsylvania, 2) register in Delaware and then register in Pennsylvania for a ton of money, or 3) renew my plates in the next 24 hours.

"Awesome": The DMV is only open during business hours, so either I have to take time off work, or I have to go during my lunch hour. Only I can't go to the DMV near where I work, because it's a different county. So I have to drive 30 minutes to the county I live in, get the registration renewed, and then 30 minutes back, during what will no longer be a mere lunch hour.

"Awesome": Calling the DMV only to be told that my registration is not, in fact, expired; the sticker that says "2013" instead of "2012" just fell the fuck off. So I have a $50 ticket to penalize me for letting a $2 sticker fall off my car.

Actually awesome: Calling the city parking department and getting them to agree to turn a $50 ticket into a warning.

I'm glad it turned out all right in the end but gahhh that sounds like so much unnecessary worry and frustration. Maybe the DMV should just make better fucking stickers. 8|
