Oh yeah I should probably tell about my exciting journey to actually get there this time.
Last time, I got there without any incident... however that was coming from another friend's place, so the route was different this time. It
looked easy enough... however mysteriously, as I was driving the route numbers were all different from what I thought it should be...
So anyway, I was supposed to get on Route 28... well, 29 goes to 27... then came 26... then came 1!! So I thought "Umm... okay... I must have missed 28 between 29 and 27", so after a half hour, I doubled back and went to that point where it should be... and it wasn't there.
So I stopped at a gas station and looked at a map (but didn't buy it, of course!) and I discovered that, lo and behold, Route 28 comes AFTER Route 1...! So thus, an hour was wasted...
Anyway, I continued on then without any incident for a while, but of course after that hour detour, was running late, so I called CA to let her know I would be another 45 minutes or so... but now I knew where I was at, and there would be no problem! So I hung up because reception was really bad on my cell phone, but, I had come in from this way the first time, so I knew where I was at, so it totally should have been smooth sailing!
Well, I get to the road that takes me just about to CA's place, and turn down there... yet oddly, it ends in a "T" instead of going into her town, which is very odd. So I drive around aimlessly in the area for like a half hour or so, and finally call CA again. I ended up in some weird little town 20-30 miles away from her... so she goes on Map Quest and we discover there are TWO roads with the same name, that much apart... and I had taken the first one instead of the second!
But to make things even more AWESOMETASTIC, since I had already gone like 2 hours out of my way, I was way low on gas, and my low fuel light came on, as I was driving the nearest little towny place! Somehow, I managed to make it the 20 miles into town and to a gas station after the light had come on!
Meanwhile, my cell phone had absolutely no reception AT ALL from about when the low fuel light came on, while I was talking to CA. So, she knew I was almost out of fuel, but had no idea I made it to the gas station! So, then, I double back from the gas station, and go down the SECOND road of that same name (the right one!) and as I am going down there, low and behold... I see my would-be savior! CA driving towards me, gas can in tow! So she followed me to her house, and we all lived happily ever after.
Or at least until the sequel!
THE END
