My commerical driver's test that is, not the kidney stone. I had the
worst case of nerves this morning and made a couple nearly fatal
mistakes, but managed to slog though and do an otherwise respectable
job of showing off my skills parallel parking from both sides, doing
what is called an alley dock, in other words, turning and backing in
between a set of cones and driving the bus straight for 100 ft in
forward and reverse (slightly harder than it sounds, at least reverse,
it looks like an optical illusion from the mirrors).
I then found myself back in the ER with more kidney stone woes.
They did turn me loose, but I have to go see the urologist in the
morning. I just want this thing GONE!!!
