Back to Earth :(

May 24th, 2006 at 10:38 pm

And in a big way! My car was towed today! Apparently the registration expired in DECEMBER 05, and I never renewed it. The transit police were doing a random check in the parking lot where I parked, ran a check of the plates and towed it. So now I need to renew the registration first thing tomorrow, then go to Newark to recover the car. I have no idea how much it's going to cost, because their offices are only open 8-4, and it doesn't say on the website or the phone message. Sigh...

    It seems like things like that happen when we just have too much going on. Thank good in my state they send reminders in the mail and you can go on-line and renew your tags. I probably could not remember on my on. Hope getting your car back is not too expensive.

    Darn it!

    One day about two years ago my son pointed out that my plates were expired....by almost 18 months!! At the time, I was (and had been for years) working insane hours and wasn't surprised by missing ONE PIECE OF MAIL...Luckily, Oregon is kind to our oversites...no penalties were charged...but I was very lucky to not have gotten a citation.

    sigh...one more thing, huh? Take care~

    Gracious, that is awful. They only issue us a ticket here, they don't take our cars.
