OK, so you can fight city hall.

I got a nice note in the mail today — Charlottesville is waiving my parking ticket.

Now I’ve got a bunch of righteous indignation and nothing to do with it. I’m sure I’ll track down an outlet for it before too long.

It must be a good day for fighting bureaucracies succesfully. Over the last few days, I have argued with several people at HondaCare warranty about covering a car repair. While they had me dead-to-rights contractually, from a reasonableness standpoint, I had a good argument. I finally got them to say that they would “help me out,” though I could get no specifics about what that might entail. Wow was I a happy lady when I picked up the car today and was told, “no charge.” They ended up covering the whole thing! Woohoo!!!
