It's a brand new day!

I'm Mad

What a day off! First, I have to tell you a little background on the story, then I'm going to tell you why I'm mad.

First, I work 8-5 Monday through Friday and I'm never home during the day. My landlord had another building on the other side of me that runs a business out of. It's a home healthcare business and there are only 3 people in the office. They get very little traffic, and they traffic the get parks on the street.

I park behind this building in the concrete driveway. When I first moved in last year, I parked on the street. That was until my car got keyed. (Not the car I have now, my old car). I lost all sense of security, considering I live exactly 1 block from the police station. Around this time, I started parking behind this building. I've always parked there. Recently they painted lines behind the building, making actual parking places. I still park in 2 spots crooked, because I'm anal like that. I drive a brand new car, and If you've seen the pictures- you will be inclined to agree, it's pretty! I'm that person who parks on the other side of the parking lot at Wal-Mart, not crooked- but off by my lonesome. I don't park crooked in public, just in my own driveway. The people that park crooked at Wal-Mart etc, aggrivate me.

Anyway, I got up at 9 this morning and laid around the house all day. I didn't take my PJ's off until about 1. I managed to get some laundry done and watch some tv. I decided to get ready and head out to the local home improvement store for some stuff, and grab a quick lunch. I get ready and I'm in a fairly good mood- until I get to my car which is parked in the driveway. There is a note underneath the windshield wiper....

First, I'm mad because they had to touch my car to put the note there. If you know me, you know- don't touch my car.

I open the note and read it:

We don't mind if you park here, but we would apprecite it if you only used one parking space.

Thank you, BITCHY business owner*
*names have been changed :-)

I was really mad then, I backed out of my 2 spaces and headed to run my errands. The entire time I was mad. I called 411 and got the number to the busines and this is how the converstion went:

Them: Hello, *Insert Business Name Here*

Me: May I speak to Bitchy Business Owner*

Them: Hello, this is Bitchy Business Owner*

Me: Hi, My name is Ashley. I got the note you left on my car this morning. There are 2 things you need to know, one is that everyone who lives here gets 2 spots, I only have 1 vehicle, and I intend to use both of my spots. Two, I have permission from the landlord, she knows why I park that way and I intend to continue parking that way. And lastly, don't touch my car. Are we understood?

Them: I don't think we're understood, but I will take it up with Mrs. Landlord*

Thats right, the bitch hung up. SHE HUNG UP!

I don't know what will come of it, but I came home and pulled my car as crooked as possible into my 2 spots, and thats where it will sit. It's ridiculous considering I'm never home during the day.

Whew, I feel better!

Not much to do this afternoon. School started for me today.

Blah,
Ash
