Coins & Parallel Parking

Wednesday, June 2nd 2010

It's already June 2nd! My, how the time is flying...Today was another busy day at the office, but nonetheless, I was buying a bag of chips out of the snack machine and just as I went to grab my change from the dispenser, I decided to leave it there for the next person.

I thought, is the person who finds it going to think- uh oh, someone forgot their change, I can't just pick it up because they might come back for it? Or, what an idiot to leave their change! I wondered, should I write a note that says it's for you and to have a nice day so the purpose is clear? Instead, I left it there and walked off.

During the evening, the sun was out for the first time all day and I decided it would be nice to go for a run. On the way back, there was a lady trying to parallel park her car. She was doing a fine job, but I felt like she needed someone to tell her she had backed up far enough and to stop before she hit the car behind her! (It appeared she was about to) As I neared her car, I gave a thumbs-up and nodded my head with a smile to say "You are good. Stop there." And she stopped.

Parallel parking isn't the easiest thing to do and it's nice when there's someone with you who can jump out and motion you to go forward or back more, do you agree?

Peace :)
