Life sucks

Gintama, Shinpachi
Two parking permits in two days: 120 dollars

I park in front of the house where I rent a room.

The car is not under my name, this is not my residential address because I don't own the house, I don't have 12 units to qualify as full time student at USF.

So, according to San Francisco, I'm well fucked.

Guess I'll drive the car home this Thanksgiving and leave it there. I'm a part time student so I guess I can't have a car in San Francisco. Fuck this city.

Edit: Larry just offered to take me to Ruth's Chris as a birthday gift/Christmas gift. Nice of him. God must've heard me swearing while sitting in my car and decided to give me a blessing, especially since I stayed awake for 40 hours straight finishing my take home final on the day of my birthday which is when I got the first of two 60 tickets.

wtf. you can't park your car in front of the house? wtfffff. if the owners have nothing against it and you're not like blocking traffic or anything i think it's retarded that they ticket you. D:

i mean, where else are you going to put itttt. guuuh. they should be out looking for drunk drivers not ticketing people and making them car-less and their life less easier. gah.

Okay, I'm puzzled now- Owning the property has little to do with it being your residential address- if you're renting the place out from someone, you live there. You should be able to change your address on your driver's license.

After I moved in with [info]umilingual and her husband last year, I changed my address and got an AZ driver's license- and I wasn't even on the lease to the apartment, and I wasn't a student either.

Does SF have some sort of strange ordinance that doesn't allow you to name your residence on your license unless you actually own the property? Because, you shouldn't have been ticketed for parking outside of your house.

If you are a resident, you have to own your car and the owner registration address has to be the same one where you're living at. The car is not mine, I'm renting from a friend, there's no official contract.

My alternative is a student permit. But that requires 12 units. I have 10.

Current plan? Move car every 4 hours.
