I a couple of very large contractor bags full of yard clippings, mostly chopped up bamboo limbs, from last week. Since today was garbage pick up day, I thought I'd make it convenient on the garbage men and leave the bags along with my trash can in front of the gate and move the car out to the street for a couple of hours to give them easy access.
No good deed goes unpunished.
They came right on schedule and right away I went to move the car back into the driveway.
But what did I see on the windshield? AN EFFING PARKING TICKET. WTF??
I Googled "Sag Harbor Parking violations" and discovered, MUCH to my dismay, that you cannot park on the West side of my street from 8am to 4pm daily. WHO KNEW THIS?? I've lived in this crazy town for 20 years and I never knew of this rule. Obviously it's because the high school is at the end of the block and the school buses drive down my street, but really, how was I supposed to know this? No wonder I got a previous ticket when I was having the house painted earlier this summer. I'm now $150 dollars in the hole for these two tickets. UGH. I really can't afford this. When I think of all the things I could buy with that money it really makes me burn. I'll get over it but I'm gonna stew on this for a while. DAMMIT!
