Twik or tweet? (AKA trick or treat?).. Okie.. so today was quite an interesting day, and this is how it ended. Scott and I went out for dinner. After the meal, we decided to give Michelle a visit. As we pulled into the apartment’s parking lot…

Me: So… where are we going to park?

Scott: Let me call Michelle. I can see her through the windows.

A couple of seconds later…

Scott: Michelle is coming out to show us the parking

Me: Sweet!

Michelle got in the car…

Me: Hey Michelle, how is it going? where should I park?

Michelle: Go there *pointing* turn right.. and park just right there at the visitor parking

Me: Very nice.. are you sure I can park here?

Michelle: Yep.

Me: Are you sure? Really? How long can you park there?

Michelle: Yep.. my friend always park here overnight.

Me: Mhmm.. you are sure right?

Michelle: Yup.. I’ll pay for it if your car get towed..

We all walked happily into the apartment.. abused the poor little cat (Pinot) for a while and about an hour later, I insisted that I want to go home. As I walked out, I hear a loud diesel engine from the distant. When looking up in the direction, I saw these lights.. that resemble the ones you see on tow trucks.. where my car was…

Me: Is that my car getting towed?

Scott: What? where? (still thought I was joking).. Oh shoot.. (and we started running)

Well.. you can probably imagine what happened ($55). It turned out that you can park there if you have a visitor permit hanging on the mirror. Michelle!! >.< O well.. At this point, I’m just going to laugh it off… :-)
