I just might be getting the hang of this now.

Well, I feel pretty darned proud of myself. I am half way to getting my CDL now and my current prayer is that I don't blow it in front of the examiner when I take my test next Friday. I also hope I will be considered "good employee" material to some worthwhile company right after graduation.





So far I have driven a 9-speed 18-wheeler up and down the freeway, up and down the ramps on and off the freeway, through a small town and in and around an industrial park. I have also backed up this beast. I am doing very well, I think, but let me be the first to say that it is so easy to forget "where you are" in your shifting pattern; there are so many things to think about.
