I should explain where my title came from. My dearest friend Lucy and I went for a drive, as we so often did this winter. We would drive around until we were good and lost and look for new areas of town that we would have never discovered if we hadn't chanced down that back road or taken that turn. It normally be one of us driving and the other picking directions as we came to stop signs or daring to go down that one road that you just never had the time to on your way down a familiar rout. On one such night we were looking for beautiful houses, we stumbled down an area that reminded me of Toluca Lake in LA, its a fantastic mix of large mansions and small homes that mesh quite beautifully. Lara said "turn right" and I turned down a road with the sign "not a through street" I looked at it thoughtfully for a moment and said "oh, well were going through it anyway" Lara and I spent a good portion of the night disusing that very topic and how so much of life is like that. If you had known what you were singing up for you might have never done it. But we all did and here we are going through it anyway.
