Read the fine Print
Last week I went to renew my Drivers License. I was in a hurry (as usual) and finished filling out the paperwork while standing in line. Needless to say I didn’t read the questions very well. When I got ready to get my picture the lady asked me to look over all the stuff and tell her if everything looked ok. I looked it over and asked her why the expiration date was one year instead of 4 years away. She said that was because I had answered yes to the question about me being registered as a sex offender! I quickly cleared up that I wasn’t and that I had not read the questions carefully enough. When I looked at it again it had asked if I was honest in my answers to the following question. I assumed that it was asking me if I had been honest in my previous questions and that’s why I had answered yes. I never even read the following question. So, I thankfully caught the mistake before it went on my records and I learned my lesson to not skim important documents! Needles to say, I was a little flustered and my picture turned out terrible. It was wonderful that I could ask her if she could redo it. She must have thought I was a dork. I felt like one.

I love it! That is an awesome story.
what is it with the dmv and their camera's. my picture looks like Kojoe, if you know who that is ... he's the gay fashion designer on tv. I was to embarrassed to get a retake but i need to because people take a double take.. it so doesn't look like me. I think they take stupid shots so they can laugh at them on their breaks on our tax dollars! i'm serious!!
Do you also read the fine print of those pesky suggested speed limits? Not that I would know, but speeding in a school zone is very expensive.
