Updating on what I have been doing lately... this is true...
Well I went in to get my driver's license yesterday. I said I was going to fuzz my hair to look scary - no need... my old picture was pretty nasty, but this one makes that one look like a beauty queen... I look like a refugee from the women's prison in Gitmo (if there is such a thing) or maybe one of the aliens from THEY LIVE... I would even make Killer Clowns cry...
The DMV lady told the guy in front of me that his picture was cute... she just looked at mine and turned green... ha ha.
There is a sign on the wall that if you harass or do anything to upset the workers - it is a felony... I think seeing my picture may qualify...
Maybe I should have worn my glasses (if they were darkened people would think I was a big fat bug).
When I did my eye test she asked if I was still 178 pounds... I said "We'll go with that"... she said "What?", I said "I am in the vicinity"... haha... DMV people really need a sense of humor, but she smiled and did not change my weight - probably thinking "178 pounds is really fat" (she was skinny, what does she know).
Good Lord, this doesn't expire until - well, maybe never, I can't find an expiration date! (well the temporary is in March this year), but no permanent one...
So what do I say when I get in a traffic stop... "You really, really don't want to see my license." I mean there are going to be policemen dropping like flies from heart attacks... or what is that called? analeptic shock... something like that...
Oh well, we can't all be gorgeous, and to think I dressed up in my road-kill shirt (fuzzy shirt that looks like a dead possom - maybe the shirt doesn't but the face sure in the hell does), fixed my hair and even wore eyelash mascara... did not help (well, gave me a racoonish appearance)...
I did not get the enhanced license (can be used as a passport), I might do that if they change the picture (of course the next one could be even worse). I never go anywhere that I would need a passport anyway, so I didn't think I needed to spend the $15. It is definitely true when you look at yourself in the mirror and then go away and forget what you look like... Leave it to the DMV to remind you...
About Me
- Maggy77
- I have many interests, love reading mystery books, anything about tigers, and grand-kids (not particularly in that order). I wrote a Bible study and am pretty much unmovable in my literal biblical view. I am attempting to write a couple mysteries one for adults and one for teens. I edited and published a monthly historical newsletter, "The Pacific Northwest Croatian" for seven years and learned much about my people during that time. I have been writing on Helium since July of 2009. I found the humor section and discovered that humor may be my niche, but my first love is writing Christianity articles. I have five grandchildren and five children, grown - but not grown up. We have a German Shepherd (Kobe)and a potbelly pig (Porky). Spent 35 years of my life making concrete lawn ornaments. I am Croatian, my husband is German... a family of stubborn, but silly people. That's about it.
