Update on NYC Parking


Posted: Aug 16, 2010

Just thought I'd let everyone one know that I found a very close parking lot near by (only a block away from the theater).  Thank you to to those who gave me google advice.  It was $35 for the night.  I should have paid better attention though.  To make al ong story short, I had to move my car because the lot closed at midnight and the concert was just ending at 11:45 so at about 8:00 I moved my car and found that parking is free after 7:30 on the streets.  There was so much street parking that if I had known that I could have parked for about $10.00.  Oh, well, live and learn.

On the upside, the concert was amazing, the meet and greet was a blast and all and all my daughter and I had a fantastic time.  Downside, we got home at 5:30 in the a.m. and had to be up for work at 6:30.

Thanks for the update - Christine

I was actually thinking of you and hoping you had a great time!! I am glad things worked out. I went to the Westminster Dog Show (WOW) in 2006. We got a hotel just about two blocks from Madison Square Garden; not fancy, but clean and warm. It all comes together, and I am so glad you enjoyed the concert. I trust someone was feeding those little ones while you were away!! LOL! I'll bet Mindy is happy you are home!! Hope you got her playmate by now.

Parking - What Would You Do?Aug 09, 2017
I rent a townhouse apartment in a small complex, 6 units total.  Each of us are assigned 2 numbered parking spots, with 2 or 3 unnumbered for guests.  One of my neighbors has 2 full-sized pickups and a work pickup.  His wife is a coder who works at home so only one of the personal vehicles gets driven.  In addition to their 2 assigned spots, he has a work truck that he parks in one of the guest spots and leaves it there all the time when he is not at work, even on weekends.&n ...

Have You Ever Been Trying To Exit A Parking Lot By Turning Left And...Dec 04, 2012
there are cars coming at you from the left and they finally clear but then there are cars coming from the right turning into the parking lot and you can't move until THEY clear but once they do, there are now cars coming from the left again and on and on.  This happened to me last night and the jerk behind me actually started honking at me.  What the heck was I suppose to do?  Drive into traffic so he/she could get home sooner?  It's just frustrating and it's ...

Copycat Empties 50 Rounds In Southern CA Mall Parking LotDec 15, 2012
Aside from sheer panic that sent hordes of screaming holiday shoppers running for cover, mall store lockdowns, a police search and investigation, no fatalities or injuries, thank goodness.  The perp was taken into custody and charged with felony assault with a DEADLY weapon.  Again, it was 50 rounds of live ammunition, not 50 knives or 50 Molotov cocktails.  Merry Christmas from the NRA et al.    ...

Pepper Spray, Competitive Shopping Rage, Parking Lot ShootingsNov 25, 2011
Video display destroyed with clerks diving to the floor and scrambling to save the merchandise.  Trampling in realtime, despite the death this caused 3 years ago.  20 consumers injured by a women who came equipped for armed combat.  I am left wondering how much of a role media hype played in this sad desperation and find myself at a loss when trying to understand it.   On the news station I am watching this morning, "hot items" and "dee ...

Update And Asking For More Help. Sep 24, 2010
I posted this  a couple months ago. Basically, it's about being depressed, having socially anxiety (or maybe avoidant personality disorder). http://forum.mtstars.com/245664.html Well, instead of getting help then, I decided to get another MT job to try one more time. And I am getting worse. I realize I need to get help now, or my life is not going to go anywhere. I'm starting to have more suicidal thoughts and anxiety attacks. I don't have money to go to a doctor. I know I ...

E-cig UpdateJul 26, 2010
Since this thread started last week, I ordered, received, and have been using e-cigs for 4 days.  They're awesome.  I've smoked since a teenager - before cigarettes were taboo.  Since working at home, I was smoking 2+ packs a day.  I'm now smoking maybe 8 cigarettes a day, with absolutely no withdrawal.  When I smoke a real cig now, it's more of a choice rather than a necessity.  When I run out of my cigs, I won't be buying a new supply ...

Update On HJ Res. 15Jan 07, 2013
Did some more research on this and apparently Rep. Jose Serrano (D-NY) is simply a fanatic about repealing the 22nd amendment.  He actually has tried this before (HJ Res. 5) back in 2009, so I'm guessing it'll get about as far this time as it did last time. I would, however, like to have a discussion about the pros and cons of this bill - apparently there are some that would like to see this amendment repealed.  I'm actually for more term limits - senate, house, supreme ...

Update On MILJan 13, 2013
As you know, she has a new diagnosis with Alzheimer's and am getting her started on coconut oil,  well coconut oil gelcaps, as that was what was available at the store at the time.   Anyway, not a moment too soon.  Just needed to vent a little.  Where to start!  SHE GAVE ALL HER CHRISTMAS PRESENTS FROM ME AWAY!!!!  Her greatest need at this time was warm winter sweaters, sweatshirts, layering pieces like turtlenecks and long-sleeved Tees to wear underneath ...

Just An UpdateAug 06, 2013
I posted a few times on the prayer board about being abused by my sister for as long as I can remember.  Several of you encouraged me to see a therapist, and today was my first visit.   I chose the therapist's name from a list of providers given to me by my insurance company.  I did not know anything about her.  I can say based on our session today that I am extremely pleased.  She is just wonderful.  It was a very difficult session for me, having to give ...

Update On New JobJun 25, 2014
Hi all in MT land: I am here just to stop in and say hi. I had posted awhile back about giving my notice and moving onto a new (and better) job. My last day with my MTSO was Friday the 13th. I started my new job June 9th and stayed on to help finish out the pay period. My last day I posted a message on IM about it being my last day and goodbye everyone kind of thing and didn't hear a peep. Not one message. I don't care, it's not like I was expecting anything, but not even one m ...

Another Update On MeMay 18, 2016
Well, my legs and ankles are mostly normal now. I think I lost 10-15 pounds and took finally four Torsemide two morning and two in afternoon to do it. I have diastolic heart failure and that plus my low potassium threw me into a bad spell with swelling that would not go down. I do feel some better though. I still have the hives and now they are really bothering me badly. I went to the drug store and finally got some CVS brand Allegra 180 mg. I found reviews saying it was good for hives since ...

Update On New Profession ..... SMJan 30, 2012
Hi everyone, I am the one who posted a few weeks ago about going for the job with my State as a dispatcher. Good news!!!!! I had my polygraph today and I PASSED, lol. Yes, I was nervous, of course, because I realize that these are not 100% accurate but I decided ahead of time to just take a deep breath, be completely honest and it worked. I am so excited and hoping (with the way things are going) to be out of this field before the end of February (or earlier, hopefully). I believe that the ...

Another Update On New ProfessionApr 11, 2012
Well, it has been a month, short of 5 days, that I walked away from the medical field and medical transcription after over 23 years.  I have to say that it has been the best thing that I have done for myself and my family in forever.  The work schedule is a little screwy (dispatcher for law enforcement) but with no small kids and my husband already in law enforcement for 27 years, it has been adaptable for us.  The first week was spent becoming certified on state and national comm ...

Update On Dog Food...no Go.Mar 21, 2011
Won't touch the 4Health or Taste of the Wild. So, we're done spending a fortune on dog food. We're going back to Beneful. It seems to be the only thing she likes. Thank heavens, we only bought the small bags and they are gone now. On the positive side, as long as she's not eating much, she might lose some weight.  LOL ...

Update To My Post BelowMar 10, 2011
Thanks to all your messages below.  Here's an update.  We have a small bowl of food out for her.  I just could not stand to wonder if she is starving.  So now we know she isn't.  She is still skiddish, but it warming up to us.  She doesn't run unless we make a movement toward her.  If we stand still and talk to her she will sit and watch us and not run.   She does appear a little thin, but at least I am more comfortable knowing if she i ...

Is It Proper - UpdateJan 29, 2010
I wrote awhile back asking if it was proper to send relatives a sympathy card.  Just wanted to let you know I took all your advice, wrote some nice words about my cousin and heard that my card and words were greatly appreciated and touched their hearts.  On a sadder note, I heard from two of my brothers that unfortunately they believe my cousins death was most likely a suicide.  There is too much evidence leading, but his brother, sister and mom went over to clean up his apartment ...

Update On MammographyNov 23, 2010
Yesterday I went for my repeat films after receiving a call last Monday concerning an area of concern.  The possible nodule again was seen on yesterday's films.  They did an ultrasound which did not pick it up. The radiologist said he does not think we are dealilng with anything serious, but has advised me to return in six months for repeat films.  Now we have a baseline set of films for comparison in May.   Thanks so much for caring.  ...

Here's An Update On The FightApr 08, 2011
It goes by minutes...and by the way, I noticed that the Cherry Blossom Festival will go on.....Reid was so worried about it not happening. On the other Reid comment about women's health and pubs want to take away that funding.  Planned Parenthood is VERY involved in abortion and unplanned pregnancies besides providing other services to women. If so, this is where most of the fight is all about now, and this is why they want to unfund PP. If PP wouldn't provide abortions, then the ...

Update On TinyApr 07, 2011
Yesterday Tiny received one dose of Lysodren, 1/4 pill.  She actually vomited a few times the day before she ever received it.  The vet said don't give her any dinner that night until her belly settles down, and then Wednesday give her the first dose. This morning my stepfather called me and told me he had to take Tiny to the hospital before 8:30 this morning.  She had vomited huge amounts in the kitchen apparently overnight, very early in the morning.  She was weak and ...

Update On Our Pregnant CatApr 19, 2011
Just in case some were wondering how the stray cat that was pregnant is doing... We have not seen her in a few days.  She was getting pretty big and we were thinking she would have them any time now.  We set up boxes and old towels in different areas just in case.  She looked pretty content, we would look out to find her laying on our lawn in the sun with her big belly :-) and then at night time curled up on our porch, but she has not been around for a few days now.  There i ...

Update On Getting A KittenJul 15, 2010
Just wanted all of you who responded to my post and were so kind after the death of my cat on Sunday that we have a new addition to the family.  I decided to look at our local pet store yesterday on my lunch hour.  It must have been fate.  I was looking for a tortoise shell kitten (I've always loved the colors) and one was just brought in within a half an hour before I got there.  The woman who brought her in was a foster mother to her and her brothers and sisters.  ...

One Dog Vs. Two Dogs - Update :)Apr 13, 2013
We adopted a standard dachshund today from the humane society.  I found him on Petfinder.com.  We had to drive about an hour away to get him but oh, what a sweetie.  He is only 8 months old but he isn't hyper at all.  Very laid back for a youngster.  (He hasn't even barked once!)  His tail wags constantly and he loves everybody in the family. But best of all, our tweenie dachshund loves him!  She has engaged him in play over and over.  He is stil ...

Old Lady - UpdateJun 27, 2013
An update here to a post a couple weeks ago.  I had my meeting, but that day I felt a noticable change in the "climate".  Since that time I honestly feel that the OM and her buddies are ganging up on me.  I am drowning in work that I cannot keep up with.  Our new people are in and I have been assigned to train.  Because of that I cannot perform my daily duties as newbies need constant guidance.  It has been one week, and I got called in and was given a verbal warnin ...

A Little Update On My Situation Described Below...Jul 24, 2016
My son called me today to disinvite me to dinner at their house this evening.  He said his GF was still upset and felt like he didn't defend her.  He told me he was trying to be neutral, but she took as he was on my side and now they've been fighting.  So now I'm banned until she "cools off."  All because I said he was too young for a vasectomy.  I also said she was too young to get her tubes tied, but whatever!  When I expressed concern about being a ...

My Friend's Son (update)Jul 15, 2016
My friend doesn't want me to go into detail, but her son is going to have a long rehab and she is not hopeful that he will be back to normal if at all. He has had four surgeries and can finally whisper (has a trach). They can't stay with him. Doctors and nurses think he will rest better if they are not there so much. His mother has lost ten pounds from not eating and not sleeping well. A woman T-boned him on his motorcycle and he flew across her car and landed on his back. Plea ...

Update On How EBay Is Going For Me!Jun 05, 2014
Hi everyone.  I haven't been back to MTStars in many months.  I see so many who are depressed and broke (and understandably so). Back last year, I wrote several posts about how I had started selling on eBay.  I got the idea from here, the Gab board, after seeing a woman post that she sold $800 on eBay in her first month.  EBay is continuing for me, and now I've added selling books on Amazon too.  After a lot of trying different things and making a lot of mista ...
