my spot · May 14, 2005 by Matt Gilbert

I was looking for a reason to park my car in the same spot every day at school, so I would know where to find it. Day after day I would wander around at the end of the day with 5 hours of crit in my head trying to remember anything distinctive about that morning that would remind me of where I parked. One day, by pure accident, I parked over a water drain. When I closed my car door like I do day after day before heading to class, I heard my car door close 5 times more, deeper and deeper each time. It was echoing in the underground tunnel below the water drain. I slammed my door more and more, squeezing 8, 10, and more echoes out of it and decided–this is my spot.
