I Appeared In Court Today

I’m a criminal!  A criminal. 

Not really.  I got a ticket a couple months ago.  I deserved the ticket, I did improperly pass the old man in the white van going 15 MPH during rush hour…I would have gladly paid the ticket and learned my lesson.  Except in Massachusetts I would have been paying for that one ticket for at least 7 years in insurance surcharges.  I would have also lost my Step 9 status.  My boss talked me into requesting a hearing where he would appear with me. 

This morning the hearing took place.  It was all of 5 minutes long.  Attorney #1 went into the room with the police prosecutor and clerk magistrate as they entered.  Me and everyone else waited outside the room.  10 minutes later he called me in.  We sat, the clerk magistrate explained the hearing, asked to hear from the police prosecutor first.  She said, "I don’t have a copy of the ticket or report."  That was it, Tamara one, ticket none.  Turns out, Attorney #1 got the police prosecutor to lose the report.  Oops.  Works for me.

I was nervous as all get out though.  Even though it was only a civil motor vehicle infraction.  Courts give me the hives.  I’m a good, law abiding citizen after all.   *proudly buffs knuckles on shirt*  The ONLY one on both sides of my family who has never been in trouble with the law and had to go to court.  So it was freaky to be in there this morning.  I have a tendency to spill my guts about every thing I’ve ever done even remotely illegal when I am around police officers.  *LOL*  I do, I’m all like, "When I was 5, I stole a piece of gum from the store…"  Attorney #1, knowing this, told me he would do the talking this morning if any talking needed to be done.  Hee hee.  He said, "We don’t need you to get in there and start spilling the beans on everything you’ve ever done and then add Brian to the mix." 

Uhm…my WYSIGFDAWXYZ editor is acting wonky here again. Frikken thing.

So I’m typing this in source view and it’s weird. I get to take the PTS again today. Hope to meet some interesting folks this afternoon. I hope the rain either comes before I am waiting for trains and busses or after I am already home and done walking the dogs. Hear that Mother Nature? Be nice to me today. I’m already aching and don’t need to get wet which will make me ache more. Thanks, appreciate it. Much obliged.
Uhm…what else? Ahhh, oh! Cable is coming out on Saturday morning to install my new DvR. Nice. Can’t wait. Now I can record things for Brian and I can record shows I’ve been missing due to them being on at the same time. What a loser I am. So excited about being able to tape TV again.
Rob Thomas will be performing live tomorrow morning on The Today Show. I went to the message boards yesterday for shits and kicks because I was bored at work and was UPSET to see the same psycho stalker fans going to be lining up at Rockerfeller Center tomorrow to see the Robster. Once again they will line up to get in front thereby blocking the poor fans who have never had a chance to see him up front. God you don’t know how frikken much this burns my ass. It really does. It’s so unfair. I don’t like those crazy woman. I so wish now I had done that nasty message on the boards about the crazy pyscho stalker fans. But I was selfish and wanted to see who took pictures of my moment before I pissed everyone off. Now it seems too much time has passed to do it. Or has it? *spits* crazy assed beeyatches.
