What a convenient place to park your 18-wheeler! Never mind the fact that it’s hanging out into the road!

R.I.P. SUMMER 2009!
The next two weeks are going to be so busy.
I’m (finally) taking my Driver’s Ed. course in the mornings from 8:45 – 12:00. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not mentally taxing (the teacher even said that you only need 20% of your brain to pass…), but it’s awfully early compared to when I’ve been waking up this summer and three hours is a pretty long time to just sit there.
Then, I have rehearsals from 7 PM – 11 PM. Granted, I have a 6-hour gap (allowing for travel time, etc.) between Driver’s Ed. and rehearsal, but it’s not a lot of time when you consider that I usually take a nap during that time and I have to work on my French and this and that and blah blah blah. When will I be able to loaf around and do nothing?!
And the worst part is that I only have seven hours to sleep between rehearsal and Driver’s Ed. the next morning (I doubt I’ll be able to come home from rehearsal and go straight to bed and I have to be up at 7 AM the next morning). I need my sleep!
Of course, it will all work out eventually. And I do enjoy being busy, so it’s really not that bad. Driver’s Ed. is only this week and next week and we go into tech next week for my show, so come next Saturday morning I’ll probably be bored out of my mind (until our evening shows, of course)!
Dear Blue Van,
Sorry for cutting you off. I wasn’t really paying enough attention while turning. Hope you’re not too pissed at me.
Dear PNC Bank ATM,
Suck it! You slapped with a $3 surcharge to withdraw $5 even after I hit the cancel button!
Dear GoPhone,
It’s sucked been nice but I’m sick of you and your inability to do…well, anything, really. I’m so ready to get my replacement iPhone tonight. I’ve felt so deprived and disconnected for the past three days.
Dear Top Chef Masters,
I’m excited for your premiere tonight! Although I will miss Padma and Gail, you look promising and entertaining. I miss my Wednesday night food porn!
Dear humidity,
Go away.
Love,
Danny
I got my learner’s permit today! Nine months late! I was sick but I still dragged my butt out of bed, went to the MVA (the DMV of Maryland) and stood in three different lines for a total of three hours. I was nervous as heck while I was taking the practice test and I got three questions wrong (so I barely passed…oops), but I passed nonetheless. The picture on the card is crap, but I wasn’t expecting it to be a glamour shot (but apparently I was in too much pain from being sick that I forgot to SMILE. I look very confused in the picture).
I can get my license on August 21, ten days after my seventeenth birthday. :)
Oh BTW I’m not wearing lipstick, my lips are supremely chapped (from being sick). They hurt so bad it’s not even funny. There’s like a whole stick of chapstick on them in that picture.
Note that I did not say “HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY!”. No exclamation, just a declaration. I am SICK of this “holiday”!
I tried (again) to get my learner’s permit today and (again) was unsuccessful. Apparently, I still do not have the correct documentation. And the woman working there today told me the EXACT opposite of what the guy there last time told me. So, I am still kind of clueless. And I’m running out of time. I need to get my permit in the next week in order to have my license before school startes next year. The MVA is…retarded.
After that, I cleaned. And cleaned. And then ate. I’m still waiting for “the call”. If it doesn’t come tomorrow, then I will be making the call myself on Monday.
I am ready for spring. I like to call this part of the year (January to the middle of March) “The Dark Ages” because it basically sucks. I am ready for nice weather and singing birds and sunshine and tans and flip flops and no stupid freaking keratosis pilaris.
Today at 11:11 AM it was 11:11:11 11/11. This will be even more fun in three years!
Today should also have been the day that I took my driver’s test and received my license provided I had gotten my learner’s permit on May 11, 2008, the first day that I was eligible. Alas, I have not yet even applied for my permit. So therefore I have neither my permit nor my license. ‘Tis a day of mourning.
But I also killed my A&P quiz and my AP History test today. So it is a day of celebration. Un día felíz.
The calendar is bipolar.
As of yesterday, I am officially eligible to receive my learner’s permit in the state of Maryland! :D I was taking the online practice test to study for the quick test that is required to get your permit, and one of the questions concerning recognizing drivers with road rage was accompanied by the following visual.
That just made my day.
Days until I get my driver’s license (November 11, 2008): 366 (Exactly one year, but 2008 is a leap year!)
(And just for the fun of it…days until Christmas: 43)
