GPS

Realization 3: I need to stop relying on the GPS and learn my way around Boston.

Tonight my friends and I went to Boston for a Girls Night Out event. We were kind of rushing (long story as to why) so I plugged in my GPS and we were off. Well all of a sudden the GPS dies even though it's plugged in...weird. So I have my trusty passenger check it out and turns out part of the adapter/charger is missing and that's why it wasn't working. Well she found what we thought could be the piece and screwed it on and pulgged it in the cigarette lighter and pop! My lighter, radio and clock all went kapucts. Yes it is possible to blow a fuse while going 75 on the pike without killing all 4 people in the car. So we are running late, anxious to get to the event and now we don't have a clear idea on where to go. Well after driving around Boston for a half hour so close to our destination but yet so far we finally make it there in one piece and end up not having to pay for parking! What makes it even funnier is the fact that I have owned my car for about 4 months now and I just got my radio put in 2 weeks ago ( I bought it without one don't ask me why) ...and now although just a simple fuse to fix I am radio less yet again.
Moral of the story is Boston is a small compact city and I have lived in MA all my life there is no reason why I should not know my way around. Time for some experimenting!!
