Blog #2: Memoir Prewriting Complication

I had just dropped off my sister at the hotel where my friend was having her birthday party sleepover. I told my sister to go upstairs to the room while I went to look for free parking, because I didn't have any money to be paying for $20 parking. As I am driving down the road, I start to get frustrated because I can't find any free parking. In the blink of an eye, I see myself taking the wrong exit and ending up in D.C. While I'm driving,I decide to pull out my GPS to help me at least get back to the hotel. I finally get all the information put in and start to follow the GPS. While looking at the map, I start to get confused about which street I am supposed to turn onto next. While I am still looking at my GPS, I suddenly see a bright white flash taking a picture of my car. Right as I look up, I see that I just ran a red light. Although I didn't get caught by the cops, I pull over and start to panic. I knew I was going to get a ticket later on in the mail, but the real problem was that the car I was driving, wasn't my car. It was my mom's car. I call my sister and thankfully she calms me down. She tells me to look at the GPS now and carefully figure out where I need to go. After an hour or so of wandering the streets of D.C, I find my way back to the hotel. Although I found my way back safely to the hotel, I never found any free parking.
