the year ends...kind of

so street cleaning ends on november 30th. our street is on a tuesday sweeping schedule. so that means today is the final day i have to be concerned with which side of the street im parked on, what time it is if i am parked on the wrong side, whether the sweeper has come by already and its safe to move my car back, how to get to the tow lot to get my car back, and how much its going to cost to pay the ticket and get my car out of the tow lot.

fun fact: for fiscal year 2008, the city of boston issued 1.53 MILLION parking tickets, collecting $63.3 MILLION! thats an average of $41 per ticket. the fine for a street sweeping violation is $40. that cant be coincidence can it?

beat it meter maids, sorry parking enforcement agents. see ya april 1st.
