I’ve just flopped my morning.
Didn’t have a CC to pay to get out of the parking lot at the Neurologists. It wasn’t embarrassing so much as it was just a total flop on my end that made me feel shittier about myself than appropriate.
My feelings about not having a CC to pay for the parking were exacerbated by the doctors visit itself.
With both brain cancer and strokes running in my family, the doctor is requesting more “investigative” MRI. In November I had an impressive run of thunderclap migraines that landed me in ER.
So not having the CC just made everything feel worse. And I’m sorry, I keep referring to a credit card as CC, not writerly.
Whatever.
I’m typing this on my phone in my car.
I’m fine. I am not depressed (considering this morning), in fact I feel good. Living in the present, whether a woman is swiping a key for your car to get out of a parking lot or not- is living in the present.
Flop morning

I think paid hospital parking is so assholish.
If you’re there as a patient, it sucks.
If you’re there visiting a patient, probably also sucks.
So it seems like the un-assy thing to do with hospital parking is only charge people who confirm they are happy and/or visiting someone who’s happy that they just had a baby or whatever. It can be the duty of the meter patrollers to gauge the happy. I better write some letters, they must not have thought of this.
I think not having a meltdown in that situation is a win! Idk that I could stay composed.
