Parallel parking!
I have barely done this since my driving test...usually I get very anxious and flustered when attempted to parallel park. Sometime I cry...actually, I always cry a little bit on the inside.
The mere act of having to parallel park my car completely freaks me out. Valet was invented for a reason...Seriously...and it was so I do not have Parallel Park and experience this:

In fact, most of the time if anyone is in the car with me, I need them to park for me. I will legitimately get out of the car and switch seats with a passenger so I do not have to do it myself.
If I am by myself, then I ask someone on the street to yell out what to do as I attempt to horribly park. If I have to do it myself, I am often crooked or too far from the curb. Utter disaster...
However, today, I had to park my car downtown...magically, I was able to parallel park on my own! No one was with me and no one was in the street for me to ask for help. I had to grit my teeth and go for it...and that I did. I was so happy I even took a photo of it.
Check it out!

I actually parallel parked somewhat decently on my own! I am very excited and proud of myself...Those of you who know me...you know that this is a huge accomplishment!
It still freaks me out though; I fear the next time I will have to actually attempt this again.
Anyone have fun plans for the weekend? Anyone else have issues parallel parking or a good story about parallel parking?
