I am a driver who is perpetually lost. I get lost going places I've been to dozens of times; to wit: last month I got lost going to my university, from which I drove home on the weekends for four years.
People say, "You know how to get here, right?"
Sheepish silence.
"Well, you've been here, right?"
More sheepish silence.
"Shoedame, you were just here last weekend!" And here they throw up their hands and start mentioning landmarks. Well, do you know where the 50-foot grain silo is? With the robin's-egg-blue top? Teenagers spray-painted profane graffiti on it in bright red paint."
No response.
