Great idea @inkpetal.
You get to a stage through this that you just have to laugh at the random shit you do.
I tend to get very bad disorientation at times, thankyouTamoxifen, this used to really freak me out but I am somewhat used to it now. I once got lost in a shopping mall for over and hour LOL.
So these days if I go somewhere unfamiliar I am careful to take notice of things so if I get lost I can find my way home. Dear lord the things we have to do.
Australia day weekend we went camping. We stayed at a very large camp ground and of course that weekend it was jam packed. Boats, campers and people everywhere.
Now my bladder is not what it used to be, as I am sure many of you will understand, so I had been backwards and forwards to the loo block several times that afternoon, which was about 50m away from where we were camped, taking note of what vehicles and boats were parked around us. No problem, got that down pat.
All was well until it got dark. A few glasses of wine later I toddle of to the loo and somehow manage to come out of the door on the other side which I hadn't realised at that time. After walking for 5 minutes or so in the dark I can't see anything familiar and I am heading towards the water, oh shit I am lost...yet again.
About face. Trying to not look like a drunken idiot wandering around the campground I think I've spotted us. Yes! I unlost myself. Good job me.
I make a grand entrance into the campsite by tripping over a tent rope and trying to make light of my almost face plant (I have not looked around at anyone yet) I proclaim "Well obviously I need another drink!" An unfamiliar voice replies, "Well love, all we have here is rum, so if you're happy with that pull up a chair".
Not out campsite!
