Unbelievable

So this is un-be-lievable!!! Remember how my car got towed yesterday? And remember how I said when you think things are bad enough they CAN get worse? Well guess what? MY CAR GOT TOWED AGAIN TODAY!!! I really cannot believe it. I drove around for at least 20 minutes this morning looking for a spot. I was going to be late for work so I parked in front of a church (there were other people parked there too) and I didn't see any signs that said no parking. I wrote a little note and put it on my dash board that said "Please don't tow me... I was towed yesterday... I will move... Please call (my number)." I really had no choice because there was no other parking. I even came out to check my car an hour later and then again another hour later. Well, I guess the sheriff didn't think my note was cute because the second time I came out my car was gone!!! I was so shocked that I just broke down in tears. I saw a cop driving and I stopped him in the middle of the road and told him my situation while sobbing uncontrollably. Pretty much he told me there was nothing he could do. I called the tow company and they couldn't even understand me because I was crying so hard. Seriously, getting your car towed once is one thing... but then again less than 24 hours later! It's $185 plus a $60 ticket each time. This situation has run me up about $500!! I don't have that kind of money to dish out over parking. I am barely surviving here as is.

When I came outside they must have just towed my car because it wasn't even in the computer or at the tow pound yet. Now I have to go there again tonight. My friend is coming to my rescue for the second time except this time there is no way I am having him dish out the money. I really just cannot believe this. Of all the cars in New York City, why do they keep taking mine?! Ughh. Well I am definitely NOT driving to work anymore. I am going to have to learn how to take the subway here. This really really sucks a lot. It is such a hassle having your car in the city. It's really not bad by my apartment in Bushwick but over here in Brooklyn Heights its as congested as Manhattan. I am still in disbelief that this has happened. Right after I get out of work I am totally going to a bar and getting a drink. I feel like my stress level has gone way over the top. Between Sunday's crap, Monday night's food poisoning, and my car being towed yesterday and today, I have just about had it. But I know I gotta keep it together and stay strong... because it CAN get worse :/
