DMV Morning

Today is my birthday and to celebrate it I went to the DMV in the morning. My driver’s license expired and my new one didn’t arrive in the mail. The check cleared 3 weeks prior, but I have nothing to show if I get pulled over. Even if the chances of getting pulled over is slim, I don’t want to risk it.

It only took me less than 5 minutes to get my temporary license, but 1 hour and 15 minutes to wait in line for it. I got there 15 minutes after they opened, too. Too bad there isn’t a line for people whose business takes them only all of 3 minutes. I would have been in and out in a flash.

This made me late for work, and my chiropractor appointment. This also meant no time for a free breakfast at Denny’s. Darn.

All the chain restaurants want you to sign up for their mailing list these days. The one restaurant that I did get a birthday coupon to has Friday, Saturday, Sunday blackout dates. Darn you, Benihana! …I’m still going to Benihana because it’s a good coupon! $30 off!

The best I could do on a short notice was a free guacamole coupon for El Torito. Dragged Adamu and Penny with me for lunch.

For dinner, Adamu and I did nothing. Both of us were too full from lunch. Well, we did go to Mousse Fantasy for cake. I had the chocolate cake, and Adamu the chocolate mousse cake.

Best part of my day, I found out in the freezer section of Nijiya were jars and jars of Niijima kusaya! It’s very expensive for $14, but if I ever get the munchies for fermented fish, I know where to go now!
