I say this because I received a letter in the mail two days ago from the LA Sheriff\u2019s department telling me that I am past due on paying a parking ticket.  A ticket I received at 9am August 29th.  Not only was I apparently not at work that morning, but I was in a part of LA I have never been in before.  <\/p>\n<p>Assuming work calms down tomorrow, I will be giving them a call to let them know that apparently there has been a mistake.  I&#8217;ll tell them what happened, or what didn&#8217;t happen as the case may be, and I will listen to them tell me that there is nothing that can be done and I will have to pay the ticket.  I mean there is my license plate number in the letter along with a rough description of my car, and without some sort of concrete proof, that will probably be all she wrote.<\/p>\n<p>This is just totally crazy, the sort of thing you would expect to see on some cheesy TV show at 10 o&#8217;clock at night.   Regardless of how crazy it is, I guess it is better to pay the $45 ticket than to have that go on my &#8220;permanent record&#8221;.  Crazy&#8230;.. <\/p>\n<p>On the lighter side of things I actually got my Death Cap For Cutie tickets.. So very very happy.  <\/p>\n<p>The Long Beach Invitational tournament is this weekend.  I have actually signed up for the first time in 3 years.   I don&#8217;t expect to do great, as I spent all summer recovering from a sprained back, but gosh darn it, I plan on enjoying myself.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Now that I have bared my soul, on to the rest of my gritty life.
