Just a few things I would like to do this week.
My first adventure:
A simple task,
Friend: "Hey molly I think we should practice going to work, so we don't get lost tomorrow when we have to be there on time. "
Me: "Oh yeah, that makes sense." So we hop on bus 145 one stop away from our destination. We find it in 10 minutes, no problem. Feeling pretty confident about ourselves we hop back on the bus and thinking about how hungry we are we realize 20 minutes later that we still have not heard the call for our stop.
Friend: "Well maybe its just taking the full route and our stop is on its way back."
Me: "Wouldn't it be funny if the bus just pulled over and the driver said this is the last stop i'm done for the day and didn't take us back." We laugh. Five minutes later the bus pulls over...
Bus Driver: "Uhhmmm? this is the end of the line why are you still on the bus.."
Freak out.
She kicks us off the bus looking at us as though we are completely incompetent. And there we are left in the middle of God knows where. We walk around for about a half hour and realize we are in some suburb of Illinois... not even Chicago at this point. Find our way to the "L" and proceed to take a 20 minute ride back to the city from which point we walk 1o blocks back to our apartment. All of which was supposed to take us 10 minutes... ended up a 2 hour extravaganza. Only me.
Hopefully tomorrow works out better. Whos excited!
