how was your week?
mine was...interesting. for those of you who are outlaws, much like me, and hold a North Carolina liscense, here's a bit of news I never knew.
thursday morning, ryan and I took a trip to the dmv to get our liscence's updated and register our cars. everything started off great. we didn't have to wait in a huge line, the staff was incredibly nice...I should have picked up on these signs and realized my day would not end well.
ten minutes after signing in I am called up to the counter and begin the process of getting my liscense. luckily I didn't have to take the written test...I'm not the best test-taker...only the eye check. after waiting for the approval that I'm not a felon and don't have any unpaid tickets I'm called back to the counter. and this is where it all slides down, down, down.
I am told there will be no georgia liscense for me due to a restriction from north carolina. hmmm? this is quite odd. those who know me are well aware of my anal-retentive bill paying ways and know that I would never not paying anything. so, I get the number and call the ncdmv (all the while the woman is still being nice and allowing me to cut back in line rather than wait all over again...yet another of those things that should have smacked me in the face and said: stop! go home now, while you still have your dignity!!!) after waiting through the endless push 1 for english and 3 for this and 8 for blah blah blah, I get a live person.
ok, are you ready for it?
my liscense is suspended.
woosh! the floor falls out from beneath me and I think I am going to die of embarrassment. me???!!! suspended liscense??? since the beginning of september????????!!!!!!! wow, a gift from God that I wasn't pulled over in the past month, I would have been arrested!
now, I'm sure some of you think it's because I didn't pay something or go to court, but nope. that's not why. it's because, ok, sarah, annie, booth and kaylene...this is where you may begin laughing: on the way to commissioning I got a little heavy in the foot around anderson south carolina and was pulled over. I was clocked at 84. big deal. I've done worse.
apparently north carolina didn't agree. anything above 80 automatically suspends a north carolina liscense. nice of them to tell me. so I am stranded until the middle of october. it's a blessing I can walk to work.
but, how am I going to get to CWJ next weekend?
...to be continued.
