So originally I planned to continue the diet reviews today for my blog, I started out with all the intentions of doing so, thinking of things to say, things to discuss, triumphs, setbacks, etc. but then the day started to take a turn, a turn that turns me, The Total Package, into the Incredible Hulk.

The second thing that made my day such a lovely one is the Drivers license department. It used to be to renew you would just mail in the application with the appropriate fee’s. Well, not the case any more in Utah. You now have to go into the office to do this. If you’ve ever been there its a freaking joke! The lines and the wait they make us all sit through each and every single day! I went in with my current drivers license which expires in June (trying to get the jump start on things) my passport, and my completed renewal application. I then waited inline for about 30 minutes, when I finally got to the lady who gives you a number to wait in yet another line, she tells me they cant help me because, even though I have my drivers license, my completed application, and my U.S passport, they cannot help me because I don't have my social security card with me. Now where I was only renewing my license and it was not yet expired, they could not do anything. Apparently if my license was 2 weeks or more expired, they would be able to take care of me with out my social security card as its more important, but since June is a few weeks away I could always come back with a card. Absolutely absurd! You try to do something fast and ahead of time and instead your punished! So, I of course ran home, got my card and drove back, waited again in the line to get a number to wait in the other line. It wouldn’t have been so bad where they have 11 plus counters to help people, however only one rep was helping people! The other 10 were busy talking about Angelina Jolie. I tell ya, if tomorrow isn’t much better I don't know what I’ll do!
However there was a positive, well wonderful thing that happened today! Tom and I purchased our first trailer! Yes its official! We are part time Trailer Park Trash now! TPT baby! And yes I know that I capitalized Trailer Park Trash! Its a name/term and I will grow to respect it (even though I’m not from Kentucky like Rick)! Anyway, hope to see a lot of you out in the woods this Summer freezing in your tents while I have the heater going!
Its not easy being the king! Love all you silly people! (Rebecca, the worlds greatest english teacher, any errors in my writing tonight can be blamed on Ambien and not you!)
Hey Cole, good to see you writing and to see you Vlogging. What kind of video cam do you have? I got a little Flip camera which works quite nicely but a little hard to stabilize so I get a lot of movement. I have to work on that as I've seen it done without too much jumping. Do you watch ShayCarl on the YouTube?
ReplyDeleteI have been blogging for a few months. It helps me to vent even if not too many people read it. Check it out if you want: http://jgemacher.wordpress.com/
I love your little trailer. Did you buy that from your dad?
Hey Julie, I have a Sony HD camera I picked up before the cruise. It is so small and the view finder flips around so you can see what your doing. It allows it to stay pretty steady when you record. I do need to use my tripod but I dont know where the parts to it are (prob with my old camera). Not familiar with ShayCarl, I'll have to look it up. Its so theraputic doing the blogs! Helps me let things go that upset me!
ReplyDeleteI cant believe the patience you have! Your dad was telling me how things have been but after reading your blog I believe you deserve the nobel peace prize! Wow, I told Tom if I ever get something like that I want him to put me in a place because thats no fair for somebody else to have to take care of me like that. So sad and I'm sorry your going through all that!
The trailer we bought from my grandpa. He bought it and used it once, and according to my uncle Greg he froze so bad he never wanted to use it again. He probably didn't have the furnace going, and trust me I dont like to freeze so I'll crank that puppy up on high!!
Cute trailer!
