2009 has a been a fuckin' bust for the most part.
The first half was decent, this second half has been very questionable. I've met a couple new people which is great. I've reconnected with people I grew up with and that has been some of the few highlights of the year.
Last night I got pulled over for a brake light being out. I don't have my drivers' license. Mostly because the DMV wouldn't let me use either of our cars. One has a broken door and one had a cracked windshield.
Luckily the officer that pulled me over knows me and we've spoken a bunch of times. He kept making a point of telling me he really didn't want to do anything, but he has to. He gave me a ticket for not having an operators' license which was $287. Only $37 more than my stop sign ticket. hahaha. Anyway, he then told me, "i'm going to drive off and go park at the station and do some stuff. You do what you have to do". I got out and talked to some people since I got pulled over in front of the bar and several people I knew were standing out there. Then drove home.
Awesome. A fucking brake light.
I got lucky, though.
Murder City Devils on NYE. I got two tickets for $50. Not sure of any other plans.
I get my financial aid at the end of January and should be going back to school soon after, so hopefully moving back to portland and maybe things will change. Finish my diversion shit and get the fuck out of here.
