Tomorrow

Tomorrow is the big day. I am seeking out a lawyer. I cannot afford any more tickets. I keep on getting them and I'm done with it. Something needs to be done!!

I found a place where you can do a 30 minute consultation with a lawyer. Who knows what they'll say can be done....but atleast I will have an option. One place I talked to today said they needed $1,000 down and then its $100-200/hour after that. (WHAT!!!!!!??????) Where I would even come up with that money is beyond me ...but whatever. This consultation is free and I need some advice on what to do.

I talked to both the DMV and GMAC today. The DMV said that GMAC has MY car in their name and has to release the title back into my name. Great. I call GMAC to tell them that and Connie (I can give you her extension and phone number if you'd like) says, " Oh, I sent all this information to Barbara a couple of weeks ago and she was suppose to fix it for you. Did she not do that? " Umm....NO. How am I suppose to know that you did that? You don't tell me things like this. You don't even know how to say my name! Grr!!

I just don't think I should have to pay for all of the renewals that will need to be paid for. Something happened where they switched over the title to my car into their name when they weren't suppose to. I am paying on a car that isn't even in my name. Does that seem strange to anyone else?

Gah!!!!!!

MaMa Mia

Happy Birthday, Mom!

She would have been 52 years old today. Wow. Can you believe it? Its ridiculous how fast time actually goes when you're not paying attention.

I have to pick up Andrea at the airport at 2PM today, but after that we are going to spend the day together. We may, or may not, make a cake today. We haven't really decided on what we are going to do to "celebrate". Perhaps it will just be a movie. Who knows!

So I got pulled over last night. Second time in two weeks. Reason: My plates. Apparently they aren't registered to me. (!?!?!??!) I've been trying to register my car for MONTHS now but never could. A lot of phone conversations like;

GMAC -"No....Wisconsin residents hold the Title on the car"
Me- " I understand that, but the DMV is saying I can't register because you are withholding the title! "
GMAC - "Ma'am, we don't hold the Title"
Me- " I KNOW! ITS IN MY HAND! "
GMAC - " The DMV is lying to you "
Me - " GAAAAAAH!!! "

After many, many, MANY phone conversations like that, I found out that they just needed a Death Certificate for my Mom.

That's it?

I now have over $400 in tickets over a simple Death Certificate. Luckily, both cops said I could probably fit it in court. So I have my first court date (ever!) on Wednesday.

Grr.


Anyhoodle, I should probably probably get going now. Lots to do today! (I like how I make it sound like I am going to get up, walk away from the computer, and carry on with my day. When in actual reality, I am going to continue to sit here at the computer until my butt goes numb. How ever long that takes.)
