Title: At the DMV

Entry:
My passport expired and I couldn't stand not being able to go dancing
in Toronto any longer and decided to go get an enhanced driver's
license. I went to the DMV on dick and George urban. It was much
nicer than my last DMV experience. They have a million comfy benches
and just give you a number. Then they call you when they are ready.

I couldn't believe how fast it went. I wasn't even finished filling
out the form when they called me up.

You are required to have your birth certificate, a bill with your
address, your social security card, and your old driver's license. I
think there are some other options too.

tinypliny writes at 10:27:12 11/20/09 - Comment #53032tinyplinyI think I can be deported if I cross the Peace Bridge without a visa (and came very very close in my very first month here - when I casually strolled all the way across with my grocery bag).
tinypliny writes at 10:22:55 11/20/09 - Comment #53031tinyplinyThanks (e:jim) - yes, I can't get that document ever because of two reasons. The first main reason is I can't drive here. I think I might be pathologically incapable of sticking to the direction of the lanes here - and its not for the lack of trying.

An evil voice in my head (that probably traveled with me from Delhi) urges me to switch to the opposite side when I go on autopilot mode. Quite unfortunately, I follow this voice without fail.

And of course, I am a 100% alien as far from a US citizenship as only a decrepit koala bear can be. :)

I was thinking of getting a resident state non-driver's license ID though - I may not have to lug around my passport and visa at all times then.

theecarey writes at 09:08:20 11/20/09 - Comment #53027theecareyThis was a helpful post. My license expired and I need to renew. I'll be getting the enhanced. Oh, what was the fee on that?

tinypliny writes at 11:29:42 11/20/09 - Comment #53038tinyplinyYou get one, you get more - yeah, if you are stoned definitely hahaha
metalpeter writes at 07:50:28 11/20/09 - Comment #53024metalpeterWalgreens has this huge tiger that I want that looks like that but is white but I have no place for it. I get that it takes up a lot of space and it doesn't fit the house, and that there aren't any other stuffed animals, and once you get one you get more and that is so not the style of your house. However there is one place it and the white one would go perfectly that fixes all those problems "The Cage", Well unless some has sex in it, if someone has set with a stuffed animal is it still beastitality or does it have to be real? HA

tinypliny writes at 11:51:28 11/19/09 - Comment #52995tinyplinyThat is quite lifelike - yeah, I would agree with (e:Terry). I thought you wanted some crochet sea-thing and some resin boobs pretty badly. Oh well...
1. Fake human part
2. Crochet Sea-thing

Title: Boring life

Entry: All I do is program, work on the house and work out. The programs are
awesome and plentiful, the house looks awesome minus fuscia and I am buffer than ever but I am bored to death. I think it is reflected in
the fact that I have nothing to write about.
