As for paying for parking, if you eat or see a movie you can get validated. I think it was 3 hours for restaurant validation 5 for a movie. We got there early so we could do dinner and a movie and we only paid $2 for parking, which I'm fine with.

I didn't mind paying for parking. Getting out was just irritating. Then again I was exhausted and amped up at 1:30am. The red lights on Harbor were irritating too.

Keep the car parked once in a while and let someone else do the driving.

Or use the bus during the day. Just think of the money you could save.
It really isn't as bad as it sounds. It's not perfect, but in a world of $4.00+ gas, it really can help the pocket book.

No bus routes to my place. Not that I would ride a bike 2 miles from the nearest bus stop (after spending what, close to an hour getting home) at 1am.
No bus routes to anywhere I want to go either. I looked into the train to go up to Anaheim for hockey games - they don't run at conducive times, nor is it that much cheaper than driving.
The bus line may "be the best
company in the country" (do you have a source for that?) but their routes and times leave a lot to be desired.
