Whats the Worse That Could Happen

On February 28, 2011 I got a parking ticket. This is not my first parking ticket!!! It probably will not be my last parking ticket. I usually get them for parking to long in 1 hour parking. So when I get my ticket, I mail in my payment case closed.

This ticket was for violating city ordinance 10.52.170(A) Parking 1AM-6AM During Restricted Winter Months No Parking Car On Road 1AM-6AM Nov 15 to Mar. 1

You may have noticed that I parked on the street February 28...1 day before the restricted winter parking ends. I was slightly irate that they gave me the ticket the day before I can park on the street all I want especially since there was not a cloud in the sky that night and no chance of snow. But whatever it was just one more parking ticket as far as I was concerned.

I threw the ticket in my car and figured I would pay it next weekend.

Except next weekend came and I forgot about the ticket.

The ticket had slipped down under the seat and it was a case of out of sight out of mind.

Last Friday I decided to clean out my car (this happens once a month) and I found the ticket. Now I am irate all over again. Instead of paying $15 I know have to pay $30. What a rip off.

And I don't have a problem with paying. I just don't want to pay right now. I want to go shopping and buy some new spring clothes and sandals. And buy some cute new nail colors and bracelets and books. I really want some new books.

What’s the worse the city will do if I don't pay until May. Will they boot my car? Will I have a warrant? Will they send a police officer after me and arrest me? Will I have to register as a parking offender?
