Denial
“I’ve parked on this side street before! There’s always a spot.”
Anger
“#$*&! Why is the only spot a 15-minute zone?”
Bargaining
“If I find a spot on the next block, I promise to walk to everything within a one-mile radius of my house, plus join a carpool and stop making fun of Smart cars.”
Depression
“I’m 30 minutes late, I wore my most stylish-painful shoes, and I’m six blocks away. There is nothing.”
Acceptance
“Valet.”
