It was my poor scores on that and backing around a corner that made me flunk my first test. :( Anyway, LOVED the line "And now I realize the extreme importance of being as close to your destination as possible when transporting 23 pounds of cuteness and 64 pounds of Bubbers gear with two shrimpy arms." Heehee Isn't it incredible how much STUFF babies come with?? Just the other day I purposely drove around the Wal-Mart parking lot for an extra 5 minutes just trying to scout out the perfect parking spot - one that was as close as possible to the doors. :) Another awesome post. :) I hate parallel parking too…how in the world did you luck out and not have to do it for your drivers’ test??

Holy smokes--that WOULD have been a bad trip to the city if I'd been held at gun-point. Fortunately, no--it was a very good trip compared to that. :) I've only been to LA once, but was pretty young, so I can't remember much... If it requires parallel parking, though, that would damper my enthusiasm for it. :) ----- Tearese: I agree--there are lots of exciting things in the city! I just do a LOT better when I'm taking a bus or Charming's driving. :) Jesse: Oh no! Holy smokes–that WOULD have been a bad trip to the city if I’d been held at gun-point.

I loved living there too. To me it was an exciting thing, so different from where i grew up. I loved taking the bus at 11:00 at night even. I'm not scared of weird people, even the guy with the lace skirt I saw about twice a week.But then, if I'd had to drive I might not have liked it so much. Oh, I love going to the city!

From the title I was expecting news of a gun-point hold up. If parallel parking was the worst of your city woes (not that it isn't an exacerbating task) you are in good shape my dear. I don't think you would like LA very much. What a relief. From the title I was expecting news of a gun-point hold up.
