Meter Maids Suck!!!!

I haven't done too much since the race on saturday. A 75 minute beginners yoga class on sunday and todays BART trail run....it went a little faster than usual, I was a little tired on the turn around but the energy picked back up and I was grinning all the way home.

Lack of extra funds at the moment are preventing me from signing up for anything, not to mention the 250.00 ticket I got for "unintentionally" dropping M off in the red zone at school. I was attempting to turn right on MLK a very busy street in front of her school, the evil meter maid was parked in the red w/lights flashing and the road was too busy to go around her after a few minutes and a hand gesture (not that one!), more like " are you going to move?" I was trapped between the meter maid and the traffic and LATE. At that point M jumped out of the car and not long after that the meter bitch bobbing her head drug her ass out of the "ticket cart" and proceeded to give me a citation.......not really though, she never even spoke to me, just took my info...I got the ticket last week......mind you the incident occured over a month ago and it needed to get paid today or else it goes up to 280.00!!!
In retrospect, I shouldn't of let M get out of the car, I didn't tell her to get out of the car, but I didn't stop her either as it was getting later.
Clearly a case of poor choices under pressure, I gotta work on that!

Still, I pray there is a special place in Purgatory for evil meter maids!
