Journal Descalzo's Journal: Parking 1

So I was parking today, and I noticed something about myself. I treat the parking lot like I do urinals in a public restroom.

First, if it's a lot I come to frequently, I always have my area. I don't have a particular favorite spot (at least not when that one tree doesn't have leaves). Then I see whoever else is already there, and how much empty space there is. You've got to leave an empty space between you and the other cars. Today, I noticed that in my favorite area of the lot, there was no spot with 3 empty spaces in a row. So then I had to decide who I was going to park by! Let's see, there's a green Honda and that faded blue minivan. Hmmm. The minivan is Diane's, and I don't want to park next to a stranger, so I'll park here next to Diane.

Am I crazy?
