Have I mentioned that I hate driving to the suburbs for stuff? Well, I do. Dublin has streets that suddenly turn at 90 degree angles at intersections. Then you end up in a cul-de-sac. I got waaaay lost at lunch, but found my way back (early even). At one point I hit a dead end after being in a turn-only lane. Someone needs to do some planning on the traffic control here. I cannot figure out how anyone can stand to live out here. There are no sidewalks!
And I keep attracting SUVs that seem to want to plow over my little car. Ummmm...yeah.
I found the weird shopping center I remembered from being up here before. Everything is identical--no signs on the outside. So I'd seen a Burger King sign and wanted to try the veggie sandwich, but I wasn't sure if I was at Burger King until I was at the counter inside, because the signs are down by the road, but nowhere on the outside of the building. Very very odd. And the sandwich was sucky.
I did see a Roly-Poly -- the place T. told me about. Maybe I'll try to find my way back there tomorrow for lunch....if I can figure out how to get back there!
The recruiter called back earlier this morning. It was a contract job, so I'm not interested, but I'm going to pass BestFriend's info along. The woman was thrilled when I said I knew someone who might be interested and who was definitely qualified.
