Rude Awakening

Was on my way to work this evening when I was pulled over by the friendly Minneapolis police. I was informed that my tabs were expired. Again. I missed their October expiration last year, you'd think I'd learn. On top of that, it appears my license has been suspended since June of this year for "failure to appear in court or pay a fine." No idea what that's about. And for the trifecta? They impounded my car, seeing as I'm not allowed to be driving it.

Arrgh.

Work is, fortunately, understanding and, I'm told, not too busy. So I get a day off, which, frankly, I could use. It'll be an expensive day off, though.

I say again: Arrgh.
