Blahhaahhh!
It was completely my fault. I moved my car to the right side of the street on Tuesday, but completely forgot to move it to the other side on Wednesday. I got a parking ticket from the city because those were street-sweeping days. The ticket is $55.
I sure can't afford to do that kind of goofy stuff after I retire!
I did a load of laundry last night, and will do another tonight. On Friday I will leave for my Michigan trip straight from work. My boss has okayed me leaving early, so I can get a decent start without sacrificing a vacation day. My "vacation" will probably only cost me a tank of gas and a fast-food dinner on the road. My brother will feed me well. I will need to pick up something to contribute. I'm thinking rolls this time. Our grocery sells fantastic brown-and-serve and rolls that he can't get in his area, so that might be just the thing.
Oh, and did I mention, I have 57 days left to work? Woo-hoo!
Update: It pays to read carefully! It turns out the ticket is only $30 -- $55 if you fail to pay within 10 days. The check is in the mail!
Two No-Spend Days and Now a Ticket!
