Second time's a charm, right?

Aaaaaah, no.

I took the NH state licensing exam again today and failed. Got the same percentage as last time (58%). Still need 70% to pass.

So before I take the exam again, I'll be taking a one day cram crash course. The next time it is offered is November 16th.

Now I'm on a mission.

I WILL PASS THIS LOUSY TEST!!!!!

IT WILL NOT BEAT ME!!!!

In the meantime, I'm trying to arrange some hours at the old company, since we left it that if I had the time and they had a need we could work something out.

I was reminded on Wednesday how much I despise raking leaves. I worked for my brother on Wednesday and will do so again tomorrow. If you are a regular reader here, you will recall that he owns his own landscaping business.

I was at my favorite gas station (read: consistently the cheapest gas around) on Wednesday evening, when I saw in a span of five minutes and ambulance, fire engine and police car zip past with lights and sirens a blaring. I wondered where they were heading in such a hurry.

After filling up, I was on my way to my Bible study group when I found out what all of the emergency vehicles were for. Turns out there was a serious automobile accident less than three miles down the road that I was traveling on. As far as I could see, rubber necking as best I could, there was an 18 wheeler tractor-trailer and an SUV type vehicle involved. The SUV type vehicle was lying on the driver's side.... I couldn't see how many people were hurt, primarily because of all of the flashing lights. In passing there must have been eight police cars, two ambulances, a fire engine, and at least one flat bed tow truck on the scene. I couldn't find anything about the accident on the local paper's web site today. I'll look again on Friday and add any appropriate interesting links to this post, if I find any...

I wish I still had my press credentials....
