I Just Can't Win II

Do you ever have those days where you didn't realize that you forgot to put change in the parking meter until well into your work day? And did you ever rationalize that you won't get a ticket because the other two times you did were well past your lunch hour? And did you ever hurry up to get to your car during said lunch hour (taken slightly early, just in case) only to find that the parking checker was there an hour ago, when you first remembered that you didn't put change in the meter?

That has been my day. I give up.
