Ahhh....the aroma of Tacoma

Tacoma is a cute little town. Why does it have to smell so funny? And why are the valet parking guys at the Sheraton so retarded? I had to valet park my car there in order to meet up with Kriss Silva (who is rad) and help her with her class. I was walking away after I dropped off my car and I heard the alarm go off. I chuckled a little, because it's pretty dang funny when it's not you and I kept walking. About a block later, I still heard the alarm going off, so I turned around. I actually had to help the dude turn off the car alarm. So I went, helped Kriss, and went to pick up my car. They brought it up to me with the alarm going off. The guy says, "what's the point of that alarm? It goes off when you start the car!" and I said, "Uhhh...I don't know. It's never happened to me before." You would think guys that valet park cars would be able to figure it out. You know, don't push the little red panic button on the side of the key when you start the car? Doesn't seem like rocket science, but then again, I am no rocket scientist.

dooooooooooood i have TOTALLY set off the damn alarm when i borrow your car. except it's lame because if you don't start the car before it auto-locks, then it goes off when you start the ignition. it's pretty much lame and pretty embarrassing when it happens. haha i kinda feel bad for the valet parker dood because i've totally been there.
