The last time I had a meeting at Harvard I got a parking ticket for parking in a permit-only lot. This time I left the following note because the cop I talked to last time told me that they sometimes tow repeat offenders:
Dear Harvard Parking Enforcement Officer,
I know you’re only doing your job, but I have to tell you that your visitor parking procedure is NOT user-friendly! I tried, I really tried to buy a visitor parking pass. I spoke to a Harvard police officer and he told me to call the parking office. I called the parking office and was told to go online. I went online but it asked me for a department name and number. I emailed the parking office to get a department number and was told that all of the online passes were sold out and that I had to come to the parking office. This morning I drove to the parking office but there was no place to park to go in and buy a pass. The fact that I made it to the parking office at all was no small feat considering that I have already dropped three clean, fully-clothed children at three different schools along with the required snacks, drinks, lunches, forms, and 26 birthday cupcakes with spiders on them. I am at the Bond Brothers construction trailer for a meeting. Please don’t tow my car away or there will be three kids sitting on the curb wondering what happened to their mother.

It worked! I only got a warning! 🙂
I know some of you are wishing you could see what the spider cupcakes looked like, so here they are! 🙂
