I go for a walk almost every day. As I am easily bored, I often drive to new areas to do my walks. Today I visited an area I've been to before, as a child. As such, I was overly confident walking around, thinking I knew exactly where I was going. After I got my exercise in, I took out my phone and started Skyping with my SO -- my favorite part of my walk is when I talk to him; I almost feel like he's walking with me. He even enjoys looking at Google Maps as I walk so he can feel like he's with me.
Soon it was time to head back to my car, so I went back the direction I thought I'd come from. But somehow, I'd become turned around and had no idea where I was. I had a map with me, but I couldn't figure out where I was on it. My SO asked me to describe where I was, and I told him I was next to a small fire station, with a cornfield across the road from me. From those details, he pin-pointed on Google Maps where I was, and told me to walk down the road toward another road. From there, he told me to turn right. Then at the next intersection, to turn right again... and so on, until he had directed me back to my car.
Here I was lost in the US and my boyfriend in England got me back to my car. I love technology!
I told him this proves I'm completely lost without him. *grin*
