Funny story. I decided to move my lazy butt and go running after doing jack-squat over break. That part is the good decision. I took the Heritage Trail that runs behind Rose; and I came across a mutt who followed me down the trail! He was so cute. My little running buddy.
So, the bad decision came when I reached the Heritage Apartments and decided to take roads back to Rose instead of the trail. First of all, the only road that went the right direction didn't have a sidewalk, so I chose to run down a gravel road that led to a scary plant in the middle of nowhere. Freaked out, I jogged on by and ran down some railroad tracks (in hindsight, perhaps not the best decision either). Sadly, they ended and I took off through the woods. My inner girl scout here abandoned me and I kind of wandered until I found a railroad bridge that led to a road (scary bridge, the Fox and the Hound kind but smaller). I ran down the road and started knocking on doors to ask for directions back to Rose, but no one NO ONE was home. Finally, tired of all that, I backtracked the whole way I had come. Picked up my dog escort again as well. And saw a coyote.
Anywho, long story short, I ran for 1.5-2 hours instead of 1 and really thought I had missed my classes until I got back and realized I just barely had time to get ready and go anyways. Snap. I thought it would have been fun to try and explain that I missed class because I got lost running around Terre Haute.

Thanks for the update, scary though it is. Do you need a chaperone to exercise - we could work that out. Remnant from Grace was at PCS chapel today. We went over to hear them. They were AMAZING. Then they came over to the house to do laundry. We had to leave them here with Betsey because we had to go to AWANA. Then Betsey had to leave because she had to interview Spike. So, she left them here too. It was a crazy night.
Ha, oh wow, Erin. Sounds like a bunch of craziness, but I wouldn't really expect anything else from you.
It was good seeing you while you were here, even if it was only for like an hour. How was line dancing? Some good ol' country fun, eh?
So, I'm excited to see you for my birthday. Are you planning on coming up on Saturday? Just let me know and we'll plan something. Later, kid.
I guess we're tied with how bad we are at directions. At least you're winning with exercise! I'm still at Square 1 - jack squat.

So one benefit to not having a sense of direction is getting additional unplanned exercise.
