Hey, I got my final grades for the year. This is them:
Astronomy: A
Intro to European History: B+
Intro to Prose and Fiction: A
Mythology: A-
Reading Popular Culture: B
Writing for University Students: A+
I know I’ve said more than once that I don’t care about my marks this time around, that I’m there to learn things rather than just learn how to pass classes, but I admit that it is nice to see decent grades because that means I’m less likely to get kicked out.
PDR just got his driving license. It has been months since I think I’ve mentioned that I was learning to drive on this little PDR website that there is, but now that I’ve passed the test, I feel like it is worth bringing up.
It wasn’t a perfect pass. I was told I was taking turns too quickly and on one occasion I forgot to shut off my turn signal after a lane change, but I apparently I am “Good Enough” and that’s the PDR way!
Driving has everything I hate about walking (having to pay attention to the people around me, trying to neither be cut off nor cut anyone off, being outside), but has none of the things I like about walking (the walking part). I don’t expect to do a lot of casual driving, but I can now legally do it when necessary. And that’s good.
We now return to your regularly scheduled Phone Guys conversations:
