Unhappy in Lowell

ML, Justin, Lauren, O, Ann and I got together to head over to my favorite local brewery Friday night. Just getting out of Oscar's apartment complex seemed to cause major confusion. Oscar wanted to shower after working at the academy all day, Ann wasn't there, ML and I parked our car and were pacing to get into the apartment building when Justin and Lauren showed up. Instead of going into the apartment, we jumped in the car where Oscar joined us shortly after. Once at the brewery, we were informed by our waitress that the brewery was changing owners and they were currently out of most beers...Hmmm...when questioned if they had New Castle, she asked if that was a type of beer...no...how about a Bud instead? Dinner was fair, but the company was really good. With an early cross race the next day, we headed back to Oscar's around 11:30 to get home a little early. Imagine our surprise when we arrived and ML's car was not where we left it. A call to the management company directed us to the towing company who informed us that yes they had our car, that they had towed it because we were in unmarked residence parking and we could have it back in 20 minutes for $110!!! At 1:30am, we finally were greeted by the tow truck driver who gladly exchanged our car for our money. Certainly not a fair deal in my book. I officially am ending what started as a good week, but ended poorly.
