I Found a Problem With GPS

I always want to know where I'm going and where I'm at. I use GPS to get me through cities and downtowns that I'm not used to. I pay close attention to the routes, distances, and road names on the GPS. It teaches me.
I think it's cause I grew up in the hills. Here at home, I can always tell where I am and where I'm going cause I'm always up on a hill or mountain. It's easy to get spatial awareness. When I hit the flatland, it drives me nuts.
I can't stand being in NYC because I can't even tell what direction the sun is coming from.

If there's any device that's made me stupid, it's my cellphone. I know one phone number, and that's mine. I even have a tough time recalling it when I need to. I have no idea how I'm going to call anyone if I lose my phone. I'll be totally SOL.
