Hide your small animals

I can drive again. And bless them, Zipcar didn't blink at my offering of a temporary license number, and I had no problems re-activating my account and reserving a car to visit the parents and Ricky over Xmas.

I haven't driven in nearly 11 months! I should get some practice in before hitting the highways again, I suppose...

In retrospect I wish I had shaved this morning; the photograph looks like a disheveled, grinning Hanna-Barbera cartoon man with jaw shadow. I went with a mellow closed-mouth smile, not a psycho-toothy grin, but I kind of wish I did now.

They took $90 from me, which was approx. twice as much as I was expecting to pay. What can you do, though? It's the state.

Two cops in the squad car:

"Cripes , looks like this guy's been out drinking for two days...."

"No man, look at that mug on his license. He ALWAYS looks like this. "

"Yeah, he's probably not worth it... "


Better to have a really bad picture anyway - less for you to have to live up to if you ever do get pulled over for running over people's small animals. ;)
