Hot glue will always seek the shortest path from the point of application to your nearest finger.
No matter how carefully you measure your trackplan, when it comes time to build your layout you will find that one crucial measurement is off by at least 3 inches.
If you need a LH switch, your LHS will only have RH switches (and vice versa).

Every modeler has had some experience with Murphy's Laws.
I have taken note of a few of these laws over the years and I'd like to share them with you.
Feel free to add to this list as you see fit.
Murphy's Laws
1) Xacto Knives have a thurst for human blood.
2) The chances of that freshly painted project landing painted side up on the carpet is directly proportionate to the cost of the carpet and the difficulty of the paint job to reproduce.
3) There is nothing more painful on this earth then a rail joiner shoved knuckle deep up under your fingernail, and the chances of you laying any significant amount of rail without this occuring are virtually nil.
Your turn!
