The Dreaded DMV

I had to go to the DMV today to renew my drivers license and change my name and address on it. I think I'm officially a Justice everywhere now except at my bank. They apparently want a signed letter from the president to prove I got married. Ok, maybe not that bad, but a lot harder than it should be! The wait at the DMV actually wasn't that bad today. I only had to wait about 45 minutes to be helped and it was all over in about 5 after that. Of course I got a new picture and in true DMV style it's nothing close to flattering. Oh well, it's only good for... 8 years. :(

I also had a late birthday celebration with my dad. We went out to lunch at Friday's with my sister Rachael and Delilah. The company was good but the food not so much. Rachael's food was over cooked, Dad's food was under cooked, and my food was a little dry from sitting under a heat lamp for too long. I never understood why food is always better the busier a restaraunt is. Shouldn't it be the other way around. Shouldn't they be cutting corners and rushing to get stuff out and be making MORE mistakes on busy days... but NO it's always the slow times that it sucks. The same goes for service. Shouldn't it be the less busy a server is the more attentive and helpful they should be. Drinks always being full and so on. But again, NO! It seems like they take advantage of the slow times to run off for cigarette breaks and snacking or just disappearing all together while you sit there parched, ready to lick the condensation off your cup for relief!

Nothing much else to report. We haven't been doing a whole not since we are all a little under the weather. Delilah is starting to get over the last of her allergies from the beach. Greg and I seem to be suffering from a stomach bug of sorts that has had us miserable for days. We are looking forward to feeling better but until we do I guess it will be fairly uneventful around here.
