I failed at life yesterday....

Josh and I went to the license branch yesterday and it turned out to be one of the lowest moments of my life. I still have an Indiana Drivers License even though I have lived in Nevada for a little over a year and a half. Since I had so many speeding tickets in Indiana they told me that I have to not only take the written test, but also take the skills driving test before they will grant me a license. Josh and I went to the DMV sometime last year they told me the same thing then....that time I took the written test, but never got around to scheduling an appointment to take the driving portion of the test. Well, this time when we went of course they told me the same thing...written test (again) and driving test before I could get a Nevada license. Whatever, this time I was going to force myself to wait in the line no matter how long it was for the walk-in driving test. Before I could get a number to wait in line for the driving test I had to finish the written test. So I went to get the written test out of the way so I could go wait in line. The written test is 50 questions and you have to get 40 of the 50 questions correct to pass. I chose not to use the study manual before I started the exam. I tried to hurry through the test, because the more time I spent taking the test the more people I would be behind in line for the driving test. About half way through the test I had already missed 5 of the 10 questions I was allowed to miss. I decided I should start reading the questions a little more carefully or else I was gonna fool around and fail this stupid test. Then I missed 4 out of the next 15 questions! Now I was really in a bind....I could only miss one more question and I still had 10 questions to answer. I told myself "Ok, stop goofing off and read these last 10 questions carefully!" Well, I missed the 3rd question of the 10 I had left. Now I couldn't miss ANY more and still had 7 left to answer. I got the next 5 in a row correct. You obviously know the rest of the story or I wouldn't be mentioning it....I MISSED ANOTHER QUESTION. I had failed the written portion of the standardized test that some of the world's biggest idiots pass everyday! It was one of the most embarrassing things in the world for me to have to go back up to the lady administering the tests to tell her that I had failed the test and ask to have my Indiana License back. She smiled as she looked up at me expecting to see me joking about failing and once she realized I was serious she just lowered her head as she shook it in shame. She handed me my Indiana License back and told me I could come try again tomorrow.

It was nobody's fault but my own that I failed the test, but they ask some of the most ridiculous questions that you would never need to know!
For Example:

1. How many demerit points points can you get on your license before it gets suspended?
A. 8
B. 10
C. 12
(Don't bother trying to guess the answer, because I can't remember what the correct choice is!)

2. How do you determine when a child doesn't need a car seat anymore?
A. (I can't remember what choice A was)
B. Age and weight
C. Height
(Correct answer...B! All, I could think about was the signs at amusement parks that have a line drawn on them and say "You must me this tall to ride". It seems logical to me that the same thing should apply to car seats...I was wrong, but WHO CARES...I don't have kids anyway!)

3. When should you turn off your bright lights?
A. 100 ft from traffic in front of you and 300 feet from oncoming traffic.
B. 200 ft from traffic in front of you and 400 feet from oncoming traffic.
C. 300 ft from traffic in front of you and 500 feet from oncoming traffic.
(Correct answer....when you think your lights might be uncomfortably bright for the other person!)

Anyway, who knows when I will ever get around to go back to the license branch, but I figured you all would be amused by my epic failure. Any of the following pictures are appropriate when discussing my attempt to obtain my Nevada Driver's License...





On a more successful note...My heater is still in full force and I'm having my best week by far!
In the last two days online I have won $3,992. I added one more table so I am playing 5 instead of 4, but I also started to mix in some $600 NL instead of just all $400 NL. Thankfully, I have been running super hot in the $600 NL.

So far this is what my week looks like.
Online: +$5,728
Live: +$4,639

My first $10K+ week maybe ever and if I have done it before it hasn't been for a long time. I know the week isn't over yet, but as far as I'm concerned...its only gonna get better during my last two days (At least I hope so).
