Here's something interesting I've noticed: Everyone has wonderful ideas on how to not get pulled over. No really they do. However, none of these brilliant minds who so openly and unwantedly give their advice on how to avoid not getting a ticket know what to do after that. Everyone just pays the fine and that's the end of that. What could happen with the court system and everything is a big mystery. I got up this morning to observe the traffic court I thought I would have to attend on Wednesday. What all the people who know just what to do to not get pulled over did not say is, "That is just the beginning. The date on the paper is where you tell them if you're going to put up or shut up." If I had known that, I would have shown up with paperwork and gotten myself a court date today rather than making myself go back on Wednesday. But noooooo... nobody tells you anything useful. They just tell you useless information after the fact. It's probably just as well. The first court date they assigned this morning was my birthday. That would be a wonderful birthday present wouldn't it? "From your friends in San Mateo county." All I can say is I will never patron any business there again. There fucking economy has already gotten enough of my money. The fuckheads. The things that pisses me off the most about all this is that I was making a strong effort to be careful. Not only that, but everyone else was breaking the same law I was. Why not round the lot of us up? Why me? I am so filled with murderous rage right now. I really don't see how a black mark on record for the three years "works out for the best." Oh, but everything works out for the best! Fuck you, Dad! Sure, I won't be your problem soon enough. Things work out for the best for you. I thought of a critique of that! In my case, there is no win-win situation! If I have to end up paying this thing, it works out for the best for the insurance company, and for the San Mafuckingteo County. If I win then things work out better for me. All that "Things work out for the best" "What goes around comes around" "You can't always get what you want but sometimes you get what you need" it's all crap. It just seems like something we tell ourselves when bad stuff happens. That somehow this is what is supposed to happen to allow something better to happen. Yeah? Prove it. I think the reality is that we try to make ourselves feel warm and fuzzy that "It's all part of God's plan, and when he shuts a door he opens a window" is just something to make us feel better about life. I believe when the shit hits the fan, it won't be evenly distributed. So this morning was almost a complete waste of time/coffee. But at least now I have the time to work on my miserable egg. If I believed all that stuff, I would hope that maybe I wouldn't win this traffic ticket, but maybe I will get into the BFA program. (Thereby saving me more money than extra insurance I would spend for the next 3 years...maybe by that time I'll be all done with school...*WHISTFUL SIGH!*). That would be nice. But I don't see either happening. I was shouting to (not at) my dad earlier because I am so angry and frustrated about everything. So, henceforth, if you know a wonderful way to avoid a speeding ticket, that's wonderful. Keep it to your damn self. If you were not too chickenshit to fight a speeding ticket, please, by all means speak up. I want to hear from you! Seems like there was something else I wanted to say on this whole mess...
