I had just gotten out of a therapy appointment and was walking back to my car when I noticed it had a boot on it.  Ugs.  Figures that this happens on one of the coldest days of the week (and year, and so on).  Bit of bad timing one.  It&#8217;s 4pm and the cambridge parking office closes at 5pm.  Luckily I have my cell phone (with almost no battery left) on me and call a taxi.  I&#8217;m able to pay just in time and call for a cab back.  The problem is I have to walk out to the street to wait for it.  Have I mentioned that it was one of the coldest days?  Oh yes, and somewhere in this I&#8217;ve lost a glove.  I have no idea where, but I know I lost it before I got into the first cab.  I&#8217;m waiting for about 5 min for a cab and see another one that is empty and flag that down instead.  By now I&#8217;m half frozen.  So after waiting in my car for about 15 minutes playing on my GBA for the guy to come by and remove the boot.<\/p>\n<p>So this is where bad timing part 2 and my stupidity comes in.  I really should have payed these parking tickets ages ago, that way it would have been cheaper and I wouldn&#8217;t have had to deal with the boot on the coldest day of the year.  Also, on Monday I am going to be getting a parking permit for the next year, and was planning on paying my tickets then.  So I would have been paying them within days anyways.  Oh well, maybe this time I&#8217;ll learn that I should pay parking tickets the moment I get them (but I wouldn&#8217;t count on it).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thursday was a prime example of my laziness and the bad timing that seems to haunt me endlessly.
