This morning I needed to run out to the store. This particular store is south west of my house. So which direction do I turn as I pull out of my block? East. No clue why. I then had to go all the way around the block. Can you imagine going so far out of my way because of a wrong turn because yep, the blocks here are so far apart. (Not!)
My brain must have then switched over from where it thought I was going initially (obviously someplace east like maybe a vineyard on the north fork of Long Island?). Now it thought I was going west but further than I planned. I realized this as I went sailing past the street I was supposed to turn on.
I’m not quite sure where my brain wanted me to go. I’m also not sure how on earth you miss not one turn but 2 within half a minute of each other. I plan to blame it on mental-pause.

Whew, glad I’m not the only one who does that. Too bad auto pilot didn’t take you to the donut shop or something equally yummy!
