No Parking

This morning I woke up, got ready for work, and walked out to the parking lot to get into my car to drive to work...the only problem was my car wasn't there. I thought carefully through the night before, trying to remember where else I parked it...and then I spotted the sign. No parking, tow away zone. Well if that isn't my favorite way to start the day, I don't know what is.

I called the company and yes...my car had been towed. So...I decided I would experience taking the bus and metro to work today and see how it went (I live in DC...I have to experience the metro). I boarded a bus, which took me to the metro...then when trying to buy a metro ticket for about $3, I accidentally bought 2, $9 full day passes...idiot. Then I boarded the metro and got to work about 30 minutes late...and I decided that when I can avoid it, I would rather drive.

Well as my friends often know me, I always try to stay positive and get the most out of every experience...so here are some things I learned:

-DON'T park in the parking lot across from my apartments

-Thank goodness for public transportation

-But...I think I'd rather drive to work next time...thank goodness for my car

-And...a 28 hour drive each way is totally worth it to have my own car and therefore my own freedom...thank-you bro for driving with me...and thank-you mom/dad for the birthday present.
