Wednesday’s Woes

So, I’m having a great time in Bangor, ME!  The weather is beautiful.  The people are friendly.  I’m getting some work done on my play.

Very excited to hear the little addition I made to scene 3 go in tomorrow.  Maybe I’ll never hear that question about why it takes so long for the leading lady to come back with the shotgun ever again in any future feedback session!

And it was a surprisingly easy fix.

Assuming, of course, that it is now actually fixed.

What has been challenging is parking.

It’s parallel parking.

So, okay.  I can do that.

But it’s parallel parking for only 90 minutes at a time!  (Sometimes only an hour.)

And there is a parking garage, but it closes at 9 pm–which kind of spans some of the events I’d like to attend.  So, you know, you have to go move the car during a break.

And a rental car–kind of makes it harder.  Not so sure of the exact size and shape while maneuvering unfamiliar streets and trying to squeeze into available spaces.  And, what happens if I pick the wrong spot?  And it gets towed!?  Heaven forfend!

It’s fine.  It’s all good.  I just never realized that perfect parallel parking was going to need to be in my playwright’s bag of tricks.
