performance anxiety

Is it just me or is this a real problem for you too?

Parallel parking on a major street during rush hour is just about all I can handle.

I overshoot

I undershoot

I want to shoot myself

Inevitably, almost poetically, I am trying to get into a quaint little spot with my sticky minivan, bookended by seriously fancy, shiny cars. Once after a 37 point parallel park, I got out of the car, all sweaty and feeling worn out and abused by the stares and honks   and a table of six men at an outdoor cafe stood up and applauded.

So I took a large and dramatic bow.

Why can’t I  travel by balloon like the photo above?

 

Best moment of the week?- definitely not parking on Yonge St this weekend. Click here for 3 beds full

  1. So funny! I always keep going if I see anyone sitting watching – especially men! It’s so embarrassing! I’d rather keep driving around for 40 minutes.
    Thanks for the morning laugh.

    • well Sue that is actually the polite and unobtrusive thing to do- likely a far better and calmer approach to life!
