I had to order $250 in pennies from my bank, which they provided. I then went home and broke open the rolls, emptying the rolls into a pillow case. I then proceeded to her lawyer's office.

I was pretty dismayed when I pulled up in front and saw it was an older, three story building, meaning there was no elevator. Damn. Also, no parking in front of the building.

You really don't realize how heavy $250 is until you have to carry them in a pillow case, a city block, and up two flights of stairs.

To say the attorney was not amused would be an understatement. He reminded me that the judge probably had less of a sense of humor than he, and would probably find me in contempt if he found out about my "prank."

I then carried the bag down two flights of stairs, and a city block, back to my truck.
