joyce

my sister hauled me out to the DMV today, and i successfully passed my written test and signs test (after a brief moment of panic in which i forgot what a school crossing sign looked like).

so, i should have a learner's permit in my grubby little paws, but i don't, because the DMV computer system statewide is down, which meant that they couldn't pull driving records, so they weren't issuing anything but IDs. so we have to go back this afternoon or Monday.

but still, i passed. woot! :) now i just have to learn how to drive again...

i'm permitted now. :) they even were nice enough to jump me to the front of the line, which was cool; we were in and out in 15 minutes.

my sister was brave enough to let me drive home from her house, so i have 3.2 miles under my belt, and apparently did well. :)
