Oh 2012...You Rascal
Jan. 11th, 2012 06:45 pmWhat a day.
Car towed. Wow. Did not foresee this at all. But, in hindsight, I guess it sort of makes sense now.
Deal is, I went to my friend's house to go drinking. Not a big deal. He told me to park in the driveway of the house across the street because he assured me no one lived there. Okay. I could do that. So I get drunk and all that fun stuff. Yeah yeah yeah. And me, being a responsible person, decided to stay the night. Well this morning - a little before 8am - I am pleasantly surprised to find that my car is no longer there. Lovely.
At least my friend was kind enough to let me use his car while he was at work. Unfortunately, my attempts at trying to find where my car is was a failure. Called every towing company in my area - no one has the car. Called the cops - they have some sort of record that it was towed but have no idea who has it now. Okay. That's great. According to them, the guy must've called a private tower. Once again, lovely. To top things off, the police said they tried calling the man for me, but he never responded.
So I decided to go back to the house I parked in (driving my friend's car) and leave a note asking for the guy to contact me. I rang the doorbell. Dog started barking. So there was in fact someone living there. I had thought earlier that perhaps it was the realtor or whatever who had called to have it towed. Nope. Guess someone actually was living in the house. Damn. So I do feel bad considering the fact that I parked the car in front of the supposedly empty house's garage. I mean...I would've been pissed if I woke up in the morning to find I could not leave my house because there is a car parked in front of my garage. Ugh...it's not like it was intentional.
I lucked out, though, in that my cousin's letting me use her car for now. But I have to wonder, what is going on? My friend thinks the guy called the police to let them know he was towing it, and then had it towed by someone. I guess that makes sense. I mean, how could the police know about the towing but not know where the car is? Here's to hoping that tomorrow bears better news...
