So here it is another day...Tuesday.
I was not a happy camper when I got home last night and there was a car parked in my spot.
Now if you have been to my place you know why. This would mean I would have to find a parking spot quite a distance away.
Luckily my one neighbor that I think has lost his mind - said I should have the car towed. I responded " I really don't want to take such drastic measures I will go in for a little bit and come back". I had parked right behind my spot but still hung over onto my other two neighbors who I was 100% sure were in for the night.
He looked at me and said "It's good you are kind and thoughtful and don't want to create drama you can park in my spot my car is gone for the night. Then he continued to rattle off all the parking spot numbers that are not being used.
I was like great time to have a cold and not be able to retain this information. So off I went to my place put some items away and changed into my pajamas and wondered what numbers did he say I could park in? I wrote a note asking the individual to not park there again or i would have them towed the next time. ( I took a picture of the car license plate with the note so that I woudl have proof in the future). It seemed like a smart thing to do and I really felt that because of how I was being inconvenienced I would have them towed the next time this happens.
So, as I walked back with note in hand back to my parking spot i thought well you are genious putting your pajamas on when you know you may have to park far away and walk a ways back to your place since you can't remember what spots are open or which one is that man's parking spot he offered you.
Luckily the man was out by the pool smoking and I asked him if I could park in his spot. He said yes and again rattled all these other spot numbers. I told him that I really appreciated his kindness. His response "no problem, you need to get some rest you work long hours and you sound sick so go park and go to bed". Now I appreciated his generosity but I was also a little bit creeped out that a neighbor that I have never interacted with and I think has lost his mind knows what kind of hours I keep at work and that he could tell I was sick.
So my question to you is - is it worth it to have it towed if they park there again?
Which poses a couple of questions:
If that car is parked there again should i have it towed? My initial response is deal with it document and eventually if it becomes a nuisance yes but really is it worth it even then?
The other question is should I be freaked out that someone in my neighborhood knows about my comings and goings ?

I had this happen to me last month. I came home from work earlier than usual and there was a car parked in my spot. At first I thought, "well maybe it is just parking there for a minute." So I parked on the street and went inside. Drew and I went out to dinner and came back and it was still there. So I wrote a note and in the morning it was gone and I haven't seen it since. Anyway, I think if you send them a note the first time and they still don't move or they do it again in the future you have every right to tow them. You gave them the benefit of the doubt once but you are not expected to twice!
ReplyDeleteMy two thoughts from this post:
ReplyDelete*"I wonder if she wore her heels with her pajamas, again?"
*Is this "the neighbor" who makes loud morning "noises"?
