My Man Magellan

So I decided a needed accessory for my adventure was a GPS that would both help me get here and guide me around the crazy city streets. My GPS is somewhat gender confused because the brand is Magellan which is totally a male name, but it is a woman's voice that guides me in the right direction. Even though I don't know whether to say he/she, "it" has been my lifesaver for my first few days in DC. I have found an Ikea, a Walmart, and grocery stores all because of my great friend, Magellan. I feel confident going anywhere and not having to worry about looking down at maps or getting lost in a scary area. My favorite thing about Magellan is that he/she doesn't get mad when I make a wrong turn. He/she simply recalculates and gives me new direction. I still make it to my destination and feel successful because I didn't end up going the wrong way on a one way street or make illegal turns all over the place. (okay I have done a few of those.) I wonder if I could find a man like Magellan. Doesn't ever get mad at me, just changes his schedule to match my wrong turns... I will have to look into that!

By the way, I have managed to go to the gym two days in a row now WITHOUT using Magellan. I am getting to know my way around already!
