What to do with my newfound freedom?

A week ago, my wife got a speeding ticket. She was going 46 in a 30. $98. Ka-ching.

Today, she got a non-moving violation for improper parking. It was only $6. Still... Ka-ching.


I figure I can do just about anything that I want right now, and I won't have to take any crap for it. Suggestions?
 
I'd probably get a new video card for my PC, and for once not feel the need to stash the empty box in the back of my truck.
 
Book a guys trip ... and put some money down on a flight/booking etc. so that it can't (easily) be revoked :thumbsup:

It was a strange violation - I probably would have done the same thing she did because I didn't know this was against the law. She was going down the main street of a local town. There was a vacant parallel parking spot on the other side of the street from where she was, so she parked there and went in a store (i.e. her car was pointed "upstream"). When she came back out, the ticket was on her window - apparently you can only parallel park on the same side of the street that you are driving on. Who knew...

I thought this was common knowledge, whenever I see a spot on the opposite side of the road I do a u-turn and park normally.

Me too. It would never occur to me to park 'upstream' like that.
