This Glorious City is not that big. The population is 173,618 according to the 2000 census. This is less than 1/3 the population of Boston (589,141) and less than 1/46 the population of New York (8,008,278). Why then can't I get a damned parking spot? It was just a normal Wednesday afternoon. It wasn't even that I was trying to park directly outside of the place I wanted to go. I couldn't even get a lousy parking spot! After moving in slightly expanding concentric circles for about 20 minutes I finally found a fairly horrible spot a few blocks away and was able to go about my business.
On Monday I went with Paul to Boston. I kinda forgot about that whole "Boston Marathon" thing that seemed to be happening that day. So Boston, which is already impossible to navigate with its plentiful one way streets and constantly changing traffic laws, became a nightmare. Even knowing where we had to go didn't help with runners and spectators blocking off all of the streets. Beacon street runs through Boston and all the surrounding communities. Beacon Street is one of the streets where the Boston Marathon goes through. Beacon Street is also the street Paul lives on. Bad times.
Today on the way home a guy stopped his car right at a V-shaped split in route 95. This happens all the time as someone can't change lanes and just gets stuck there. Today an 80 year old woman decided that she would come to a complete stop on route 95 (it's a pretty big highway, you might have heard of it) and let this person into traffic. Then she slowly sped up from 0-45 over the course of the next ten minutes on the way home. While a catastrophic pileup was avoided, a considerable traffic jam did build up behind us rather quickly.
I hadn't left the house for three days before today. I think I had the right idea.

And even if you do get a packing spot in This Glorious City, you get a parking ticket.

Quite true. This Glorious City is famous for making parking laws but not actually posting them or telling anyone at all.
