You Cannot Escape

So I was leaving work yesterday much like I do every day. I mean, we've got to go home sometime, right? I came out of the parking garage and found that some guys had blocked the exit due to hanging Christmas decorations. This is fine. I figure I'll drive across the parking lot of the building next door to hit the light so I can turn left toward 61st. Otherwise, that left hand turn ain't gonna happen. Normally, I just go straight to 61st and turn right onto it.

Well, I drove across the parking lot and there are cops blocking the exit to go both left toward the light and right which goes up and over the hill to hit 61st from the other direction and still turn right onto it. This is still no problem, because I can go over the hill by driving past the main entrance of the parking garage. So I turned around in the parking lot and headed to the street that ran over the hill to make another attempt to go for 61st.

I drove past the parking garage and saw some guys blocking off the way to go up the hill. I thought, "Are you kidding me?" Apparently, someone doesn't want me to go to 61st street today.

So I gave up, and just turned right to head toward 71st street, which is ultimately closer to my destination anyway, but is a bit more crowded than 61st. Still can't believe three exits were blocked off...
