Actually, CA's DMV, once you have your license, is good. they do renewal by mail or online.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Happy Birthday Kat!

Can I have some cake, too, since I'm glad you were born?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It makes sense, it just is a pain.

Sure.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

If so, how was it, and if not, are you planning on doing this?

I just got back early yesterday morning. It was fun! I had tickets for Eddie Izzard (who rocked, though not as hard as I've seen him rock, and he was in men's clothes to boot) and a Daily Show Exposé (funny and informative), and also watched a couple "industry" shows. And then, of course, there was hanging out with old friends and wandering through old haunts.

And getting bitten by mosquitoes, but I guess life isn't perfect.

I'll need a new license next birthday - I sincerely hope it's all mail, and that the address change I did online took and everything.

You guys don't have to get a new picture? Or do you send one in?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I renewed my license online not too long ago. That was great.

Unfortunately, to change my address I have to physically go to an office.

I actually picked up a pamphlet and studied for my licensing exams. The first one because, well, first shot at license. Then here because people seem to drive so crazy, I thought maybe the laws were actually different. It's just that no one follows them. But I am righteous in my informed indignation, now.

Swouncing

Kat, trips with the pets sound pretty much just as interesting as trips with little kids - each with their responses and special fun stuff to do while the car is moving and so forth. I've never thought about it this way.

ita, glad to read you enjoyed it! And, um, welcome back home, now that I know that you've both left and came back.

Thanks, Nilly! It's good to be back. The trip broke my surfing rhythm. I need to get back to that. Not to mention the lack of punching people in the head...

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Now I have that song from The Music Man in my head ("Talk a Little"), only the lyrics are now:

Surf a little, punch a little,
Surf a little, punch a little,
Surf, surf, surf, punch a lot, surf a little more
