Got My MI Permit!

It was a very complicated and arduous process, but I changed my California driver's permit to a Michigan one. I'll spare you the details, but I'm so overjoyed.

So today John taught me how to drive stick in a parking lot. After twenty minutes, I drove the three miles home. At one point I stalled three times in a row before I finally got going. As I went to change gears I realized it had been in fourth gear all along. John says even for a seasoned manual driver, a fourth gear startup is pretty impressive.

John says I should be ready to take my Michigan driving test in a couple of weeks.
