Noelle's Night in New York

Amtrak arrives 25 minutes late. Can't get a Lyft. Finally give up and do what I'm afraid of, which is taking the NY subway at night. Rightfully so, there's a crazy guy going belligerent. He only gets off one stop before me but thankfully that was over. I get out of the station and need to walk to my hotel. I can't read a map. I go into Raising Cane's across the street. I almost ask for help with directions. Do I? No. Instead I turn around, confused, in the crosswalk like a dumbass. Still end up going the wrong way. I course correct. You'd think it ends there, but no. I get to where the hotel is supposed to be. I can't see it. I thought this guy was going into it, I went to follow him. He looked at me, horrified. It was a condo complex. I turn the corner because I can't tell exactly where the hotel is on the map. It's not there. I go back, and it was right next to the condos. Anyways...time to enjoy my cold Cane's <3
