Getting Lost on the Way Home
Today has been so restful. My friends and I didn't see Inception, we had a lovely lunch and then just talked all afternoon. I arrived at their place around noon or so and didn't leave until five.
I decided to splurge and stop in Whole Foods on the way home and then wandered for ages since shopping when slightly hungry is a bad idea, but I have lambic, empanadas, salad and nutella like stuff.
The trouble came when I left, I wasn't familiar with this shopping center and didn't realize I needed to turn. I ended up heading down a road and thought well if I just turn right at some point, I'll be fine, so I did. I ended up in Saline, a town south of Ann Arbor and after some problems trying to find a place to turn around out in the country, headed back to Saline. I turned around in a church parking lot and then got on the Ann Arbor-Saline road, which finally brought me to an area I knew. Yet for some reason, cops weren't letting folks go forward for one part so I had to turn again and I went for a while. I saw another road I knew and went, this crosses my road. Well, yes, it eventually did just in Scio, a suburb near my place but south again just on the other side of town.
Finally I made it home, luckily I had good music, my car had gas and the day was lovely, also this way, I only met up with the game traffic near the end and beginning. It was just all rather more excitement than I expected and I'm glad I was lazy and have already prepared food. Now I'm going to just rest since I'm feeling a bit shaky due to driving for almost an hour when I wasn't planning on it.
