I just had leftover pad thai for lunch, and while it was no pan-friend gnocchi, it's pretty damned good.

So it was just me then?
My brain didn't immediately go there, but it did immediately know what you were quoting. I tend to go there after any mention of tea or bathrobes.

Please tell me I'm not the only one whose brain went to:
No. That's exactly where my mind went too. Just the fact that Vortex described the construction equipment as being a cheery yellow made me smile wide.
But since they're building her place, I guess that makes V the anti-Dent.

I'm so confused right now because I rcv'd a bill from a law office stating that I owed $30 each for two parking violations from... 1996!! EIGHT YEARS AGO! By now there's no way I can find any proof of whether I paid them (or not). Is that even legal?
I have no idea if that is legal or not, but that sucks.

We got letters from acollection agency about a ticket S had already paid. She had to in order to get her registration renewed. There were some terse words had on the phone with the LA parking bureau.

I'm getting the pig!
Thanks, sj. From what I can tell, it looks like there isn't a statute of limitations for outstanding parking tickets. Of course, prior knowledge of the tickets seems like such a small thing to ask. So much for extra play money this month.

If you even suspect that you've paid it, Nicole, call them and try to convince them of that.

The bitch about coming in to work at 5am, is that after working 4.5 hours, it is now only 9:30. While my day is over half done, lunch time is eons from now and y'all have made me hungry.
Thankfully (or not) the snack machine of calories and preservatives is empty.

I tried that, Sean. Denver won't handle any of it over the phone. All disputes have to be made in person or typed up and sent to a PO Box.

I hear ya. I'm never sure whether to be happy or not when the vending machine runs out of those little chocolate donuts, MG. They're like CRACK!

Nicole, you can dispute the tickets. The chances of the police officer showing up to prove the parking violation are slim to none. (Or you might be able to do it over the phone, which would be even better, since I'd honestly rather just pay the $30 than waste a day going to court over it.)
