Bleecker Street 2000

Eleven years ago today, I went on a nice date with a nice boy that I met at a party in CT.
I completely parked legally...we both made sure of that...yet at the end of our nice evening, the car was nowhere to be found.

After spending much time with the NYC police, I learned that my car had be towed by the wonderful city of New York and since it was Memorial Day that Monday, that the Pier was closed.

I spent the following two days stranded in NYC with one: Lucas Marquardt.
Three months later we were engaged.

(Side note: My ticket for parking in a no parking read Bleecker and 3rd and I totally parked on Bleeker and 4th. I was towed at 11:58 PM on Sat. two minutes before the city shut down for 2 days! Every other lovely person that I met at the pier that Tuesday had the same story...parked legal! AND we all had to pay the storage fees for the 2 day impound...as the pier was closed both days! Ugh!)
