I just looked out my front door to a loud noise to see a large truck that crashed through the two cars parked along the road right in front of my apartment. It's a narrow street and I hate when people park like that - it's hard to get through. This truck (looked like a tree service, but I didn't get the license plate) didn't care - it just pushed through, pushing one up out of the way and scraping the sides of both.
That's where I have to park come December. That sucks. Bigtime.
Once when I was parked in front of Susan's house, some guy wiped out the side of my car. And I was just screwed.
So except for these neighbors who have too many cars, it's a great place to live. But I guess I have to be serious about moving soon - maybe the first of next year. I can't afford to spend a few grand fixing up my truck because the road's too narrow - mind you, there are fire hydrants and tire blow-outs to create that need.
Maybe I can figure out how to park it at Ahmed & Tami's place in Slidell while I'm gone in December - that's three weeks of no worries - their streets are wide and people don't hit the street parkers.
Dammit. I put all this effort into this new place and I'm happy - but this is a serious problem I don't see a solution to except moving someplace with a driveway of my own.
I am SO unmotivated today - at least I made it to the gym. But days behind in work and having a hard time kicking into gear.
