Maybe I should consider opening some sort of hotline.

So I was borrowing Clive’s car last weekend (as I do most weekends now, since Clive is mired in busy season and works ridiculous hours) and last Sunday before I left I parked his car on the street (as we have no garage parking). I forgot to mention to Clive where exactly I parked the car before I left but I figured he would know that he had to move the car regardless (since throughout the week all the streets around our apartment are cleaned on various days, so no matter where you park you have to move your car at some point).
My worry kept growing that he might get a citation from the city for not moving the car for street cleaning. However, I dismissed this as worry, Clive was very good about moving the car before so I figured it wouldn’t come up again.
As the week went on in Sacramento there was no note from Clive about getting a citation so I figured all was well. In addition, when I came back yesterday he had moved the car to another spot and said nothing. No citation!
Unfortunately, as I drove out a block away from the apartment last night, I noticed something under the windshield wiper.
It was a city citation.
Another premonition is fulfilled! How upsetting.
