Then don't talk bad about your spouse.  Problem solved!

I definitely suggest going to court and just talking to someone.  I agree, it's not as likely that the violation will be lowered due to the previous (recent) ticket, but it's worth a shot.

DH and I actually practice what you and your DH do, we try to keep our problems to ourselves in real life and use the internet to relieve some of our minor frustrations. Thanks for understanding what I was trying to do.
 

DP and I do this as well.  Sometimes you just need an anonymous spot to vent!
