Today I went to the gym to work out, I did C25k day 2 which went well. Yesterday I did T25 abs, which went okay. Anyway, I was in a good mood as I left the gym and decided to try a new way home. Less than halfway there, I got pulled over because my license plate light was burned out. I didn't even know I had one. So there was $124 ticket for that. Then he runs my license and comes back to ask if I knew it had been suspended since the end of July. No, obviously, I didn't know, or I would have done something to rectify the situation and certainly wouldn't have been driving. I had a ticket that had gone unpaid, but it has been paid now so I have to go to the DOL and try to convince them to reinstate it. They open in an hour and a half but my sister is sleeping and she will have to be the one to bring me, which means we're bringing the baby and it will be a slow and agonizing process.
I also have a court date for the driving while my license was suspended ticket, next Tuesday, but that means that I am going to be late for my second day of my new job. I plan to be perfectly honest with them; yes, I had an unpaid ticket. No, I was not informed that my license might be suspended as a result of this. Yes, as soon as I had the funds to pay for the ticket, I did pay it, but it had already gone to collections by that point; I have the receipt they mailed to me just this week.
I tried many times to call my sister to come get me, but she did not answer (she was busy). While I was deciding whether or not to actually drive away like the guy said he would not check to see if I did, another officer from a different precinct pulled up behind me and ran my license AGAIN. He stayed until I got in touch with my dad to come get me. Then once we finally got back, I had to grab my brother-in-law away from his computer and have him bring me and my dad back to my car to bring it home.
I burst into tears at one point, out of frustration and exhaustion and low bloodsugar, and they had the nerve to ask how old I was. Yeah, 31 year olds still cry when they're upset, asshole.
I'm supposed to go back to Spokane for a wedding this weekend...I have until Friday morning to get this crap figured out. Things were going too smoothly :( smooth never lasts.
It did give me a good reason to get my room a little more unpacked and better organized. I put my pajamas in my closet and my workout clothes on top of my dresser, changed my sheets and put my extra blankets in the other closet. Set up my TV and Xbox 360 and now there's enough room that I can vacuum soon :) which will be good, because my bed is always covered in cat litter and other crap. It doesn't help (though I don't mind) when my sister plops the baby onto my bed, because 9-month-old babies always seem to be covered in crumbs somehow, even when they've just woken up. Having cats always results in litter in my bed, but it's worse when the bed is on the floor and literally right next to the litter box. I will hopefully be moving that shortly.
Earlier I tried to open my window more because it is very warm in this room all the time, and my cat Cracky tried to jump out. When I closed it so that he can't do that, he started crying at it the way he does at my door when I close that. I hate not being able to let him be an outside cat, but I've lost too many cats in this neighborhood in the past and I love him too much. Mean, huh? "I love you so much I'm going to keep you TRAPPED."
I think I will nap, the baby went to bed around midnight (instead of 4am) so I am hopeful that my sister will be awake and/or ready to go to the DOL before too late. I would like to get all this crap taken care of much sooner rather than later, and we both need to change our addresses on our driver's licenses anyway. I will set an alarm for 2pm just in case. I'm starving...working out makes my appetite jump so quickly!
