Short Term Parking: Memoirs of a Life in Limbo


One June afternoon, while sitting in the Short term parking lot at the Pittsburgh Airport, I realized that I had been here before. And the chances of being again were not that slim either.
Limbo, by definition, is an intermediate, transitional, or midway state or place[1]. Whether it is life or death, or in between airport pickups, you learn a lot about yourself when you are in limbo. Unknowingly, you take the time to think and reflect.

I decided after that day in June to record my limbo experiences.  I found that people often forget what happens when they are waiting for something to happen. I believe that some of the most interesting experiences happen and then they are disregarded due to our short attention spans.
With this blog, I hope to highlight some of the smaller moments in life that happen while I am in limbo. So, enjoy! And maybe next time you are in limbo without realizing it, you will take a part of your memory bank and keep it.
