I took a wrong turn after my (kind of annoying but whatever) doctors appointment today and ended up somewhere completely new.
Or so I thought...
I had seen too many cars drive down the road in front of the doctors office for it to not go anywhere, and turns out, it did lead right back to the road I was headed to.... but...I turned the wrong way on that road and it led me to this interesting mountain-on-one-side, valley-on-the-other highway-looking thing that seemed to have no way for cars to turn around. Legally.
I did what any well educated girl would do and called my husband. Surely, being a man, he would know exactly where I was and tell me how to get home, right?
Well, turns out, thanks to the modern marvel we call "mapquest" he was able to tell me where I was.
I shortly came up on a little town known as Piru, and all my qualms about not knowing where I was exactly eased completely away and I was able to turn around.
Not the first or last time being lost for me, but this time I saw the Ventura county line and knew the beach would come up eventually and I'd have some good radio the whole way. I had plenty of gas and some chocolate to keep me busy, so I was fine no matter what time I got home. :o)

Hey, I knew where you were before using Mapquest! If you recall, I said, "Sounds like you're on the 126," which you denied, killing my confidence and causing me to weep bitterly.
It's not that I didn't believe you, I'm just not the type to say "oh, yeah, the 126..." and after an hour or so of not seeing anything, my chocolate gone, the radio station staticky, no cell service, no off roads...start to think that maybe you were wrong. I just go ahead and do it right at the beginning. ;)he he he
