Yesterday I paid $5.50 for the privilege of spontaneously sightseeing as I drove through the Bronx. I did cross two lovely bridges in my travels though, so I guess that was kind of nice. It was the New Jersey Turnpike that saved me. I was supposed to be in New Jersey, you see, not in the Bronx.
I still can't stop myself from singing Simon & Garfunkel in my head every time I see a sign for the New Jersey Turnpike.
The New Jersey Turnpike took me right to where I wanted to be, AND it only cost me $4.50 for the privilege.
I kind of like Utah, where you can get lost for free.

Trillihedron
The earth is not round
But faceted:
Fixed together by trillions
Of hedrons—a trillihedron—
So that nowhere that you stand is
Infinite but flat-set, junctioned
On each side by
Other faceted hedrons—
Like people, as a singular
Don’t exist except
As trillihedrons.

:-) I love driving through areas I don't know. I actually kinda enjoy getting lost sometimes. Like when I was in Boston looking for a hotel for the night a few years ago... I drove for an hour and a half, got locked into a parking garage and finally found a motel about 10 min from where I had originally started! That was fun at 10pm! Hope you have a great trip!
What are you doing there? Obviously I need to be filled in.
I went out for a 2-day orientation for my graduate program. I'm back in Utah now. Hooray!
