Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Candy for dinner is NOT GROWN-UP!
It totally is!! Kids aren't allowed to have candy for dinner! Only grownups can do that!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Pwned by the girl in the curly hat.
Thanks for the sentiments. Well, survived the day so far. No new news from home, so I'm going to go to krav and pretend I'm not a wreck. Which I kinda was before hearing this...
I have to leave the house. And stop thinking.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
Flea, when I got a speeding ticket (14 miles over), at the initial appearance they were basically offering standard no lo pleas for specific dollar/points amounts. Then at that point you could choose to go with that or schedule to fight it if you wanted. The plea offers were based on miles over the limit - IIRC, for mine, they left the fine the same but dropped the charge to defective speedometer and no points.
There are people who say you should always fight a ticket because the officer likely won't show up. I don't know that I think it's worth the risk or the bother if you have an alternative like the above. Do you know anyone locally who might be able to tell you if that's the kind of thing they do there?

People are taking nutritional advice from the lady who eats popcorn for dinner?
A friend got a similar ticket in VA, which is notorious for being bad-assed. It carried with it an actual criminal charge, I think. And since she's here on a greencard, and has various other immigration weirdness, she got a lawyer. I should ask her how it went, since she's still got her license and obviously is not in jail...

Hrm. Green card is like, permanant residency though! It's not like, "here on a work visa" or "here on a travel visa" or "here totally illegal-like."
Not casting aspirsions on the story, but, dang. Can't the permanant residents get a break? It's a pain in the ass enough to get the damn thing, and citizen is the only thing that trumps it. Annoying.
Er, I get defensive. 'cause of the shifty non-USian I'm harboring in the house.
Seekrit message for government spies: He has a green card!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I was considering having popcorn for dinner, because popcorn sounds delish right now, but I promised DH sausage and potatoes. Maybe I'll have some popcorn after.
