I think my carbon footprint just tripled

Since my mid-teens, my almost-lifetime annoyance of not looking Asian enough has had a running companion of shame. Well, a posse, but I’ve taken down the first one.

On Wednesday, I passed the Washington State drive test for licensing. I’m now legally permitted to drive our behemoth of a vehicle wherever I damn well please, without anyone else in the vehicle to shriek about how close I’m driving to the parked cars. So today, despite a perfectly good bus route, I drove to work.

Because I could.
