Fucking city ordinances

I am at the Black Pearl /specifically/ to see whether the Main Street illuminations are on for the season, and the street lights have just come on, but the tree lights have /not/.

*sulks mightily*

Goddamn city ordinances about light pollution, limiting the time we have beautiful illuminations up, when we’ve just turned back the clocks and it’s sunset at bloody five o’clock, and it’s getting /cold/. This is no fair at all.

At least the Pearl itself has turned on the two trees out front, and strung their patio lights up.
