Once again, I have to hum Ryan Couchman’s favorite song…”breaking the law…breaking the law…breaking the law.” My drivers license officially expired on November 14th. Yes, that means I’ve been driving around on an expired license for the past 3 days. Big deal I say…
This morning, I made the trip to the office of Mr. Jesse White. For you lovely readers outside of the State of Illinois, I’m talking about the DMV Mr. Jesse White is our Secretary of State. What an experience. It’s not hard to come up with something to talk about after you make a trip to the Department of Motor Vehicles.
So I’m sitting down waiting for my number to be called and about 10 minutes after I arrived, it was my turn. I couldn’t believe that I only had to wait ten minutes. I went up to the counter and was greeted by a woman who was happy to help me. Yes, she seemed happy. Happy at the DMV. What’s up with that?
She began to administer the vision test. Half way through, she interupted me and said, “Maybe you should put your glasses on.” “But I don’t wear glasses,” I responded. She whispered that I got eight of the letters wrong! She gave me a second change and I missed one.
I’m going blind…I never thought this day would come. I’m the only one in the family who doesn’t have vision problems. I knew my days of 20/20 vision were numbered!
I guess that explains why I have a tendency to hit cars in parking lots…kidding!
