Progress, Revisited...

They see me rollin', they hatin'...

I'm slowly but surely learning to drive.  The whole moving out of a state where one doesn't need to drive and into a state where driving is kind of necessary is a good impetus, I guess.  I had a momentary* freak-out when I tried to schedule my road test online and there were no available appointment slots before I have to leave for Hawaii.  Turns out, lots of people are taking their tests this summer, but thankfully, lots of people also cancel their tests, you just have to hit "Refresh" a bunch of times.

So I've scheduled my road test:  Thursday, June 14th at 3:00 pm at the Watertown RMV.  I leave for Honolulu on Friday, June 15th at 8:00 am, so I'm basically taking this test at the last possible second.  If it appears that I'm on the borderline between passing and failing I'll just be like, "look, I'm leaving Massachusetts in less than 24 hours, and then I'll be Hawaii's problem, so you should just pass me."  Nobody parallel parks in Honolulu anyway**.

I'll let you know how it goes, at any rate.  Until then...

brake-left, gas-right, brake-left, gas-right, brake-left, gas-right, brake-left....


*and by "momentary" I mean that it lasted hours.
**I don't know if this is true, but neither does the RMV examiner.
