What Exit?

I really hate driving in New Jersey... passionately. I had to head down to our Hackensack office to go to a meeting. I've been exhausted lately because of everything going on. Couple that with my normal tendency to let my mind wander, and that creates the recipe for a good Chrysanthemum story. There I am, driving along, sunroof open, listening to some tunes and I realize that I've blown by my exit... by about 3. Curses...

I think to myself, no problem, I'll just get off the next exit and turn around. **Insert the entire state of New Jersey mocking me with their laughter here.** Cut to me on on another major road heading away from the Jersey Turnpike with no clear way to turn around. I drove around for a good half hour, wondering if I was ever going to find the highway again. Finally, I find the highway in the direction that I'm headed... good to go, right.

Pardon me while I take a moment to skoff at the thought.

So, I'm headed from the other direction and reach my desired exit. You would think that you could take the road either way from an exit, but think again. Now I'm on the correct road, headed in the wrong direction. Finally, I find a place to make a U-turn (!!!) and finally head the right way and reach my destination.

I feel as if I've been through a war, but am glad that I left myself a ton of time to get here for my meeting.
