$160 mistake

Lockefield resident: "Are you lost?"
Me: "No.. I thought I parked my car here."

You see, I now live within walking distance from campus. I'm renting a studio apartment on top of a detached garage owned by a faculty member in our school. Yep, my 10th apartment in 10 months. In case, anyone is counting ;). This residential street is beautifully lined by trees. When I moved last week, the lovely leaves were fiery orange. This week they have a lovely shade of red. Indeed, their colors can rival New England foliage. I've been meaning to walk to school since last week but I've been too lazy. I've been parking in a commercial parking clot close to school. But this week, I thought that I should try to park at my old apartment complex. I was never towed there and I didn't even have a sticker for 2 months.
But today, the inevitable happened. I got towed..

I could really be pissed but I'm choosing not to be. Today has been too good of a day for me to spoil. You know how vocabulary can sometimes influence how people perceive you. Today my medical vocabulary was just flowing. I didn't know where the words were coming from, but I thought I sounded pretty well today haha.

So I peacefully walked home. It was a lovely walk. I really should walk everyday. Maybe the dividend of my $160 mistake would be the savings I will get from not ever having a cardiac cath :). There is really peace in solitude... I wonder though if the peace is partly coming from the knowledge that at the end of your brief solitary walks, you know that there would be someone to join you in the rest of your journeys..
