So we got a Zipcar today to drive to D.C. Children's National Medical Center to feed the good Dr. Jessie Nance and see her in action (we listened in when she talked smart doctor stuff). When we returned the car to the garage, there was a problem with the Zipcar-provided parking ticket. It would not got into the slot. After several failed tries and several minutes, Erich just pushed the button and got a new ticket. The arm lifted and we rolled in.
A parking attendant ran to the car shouting and waving his fist. Erich rolled down the window and they got into it for a while. Bottom line, there has apparently been a problem with the Zipcar parking ticket system for some time and the parking ticket guy was going to take it out on us. He never calmed down. We drove away.
We were real mad. So on the walk to Matt & Leslie's hotel, I wrote a haiku, entitled "systemic parking ticket confusion." We then each took turns performing it. I would post it here, but it's inappropriate. But it was a great anger release. I highly recommend it.
