Hmmm, that was good exercise....
And yes, I *do* have to go to work tomorrow.
I need some quality time with my teddy bear. *Quite* tired...
'Nite, all!

Whoa!! Wrote that on the bus. Got ahead of myself. Dyslexically got off at a way wrong stop. Wandered winding streets for 1/2 hour+ (yeah, SO very lost). But I MADE IT!! Home, sweet home!! Now I am REALLY tired!

Edited again to add... but there was one funny. I got home, saw the microwave and it said 2:30. I thought **** ****!, I ve been wandering for an hour and a half??!!!!! Haha, turns out it was a cook time. It was *only* 1:30.
You should download Waze or Google Maps on your phone if you don't have them already. Both apps have "pedestrian mode" which give you an ETA for walking, and the ETA is pretty accurate if you walk at a leisurely pace. (I think it assumes you're talking 2mph?)

I use Google Maps in Boston all the time when I don't know where I'm going. Only downside is that if you use either app all the time (i.e., daily), you'll end up using a lot of data on your phone plan. (You can probably blow through your monthly data plan within 1-2 weeks if you leave location services on and/or leave Google Maps and Waze on, so make sure to turn it off ASAP.) But if you're in a pinch and really lost, paying for extra data might be worth it.
