Well, by damn! I found a copy of my driver’s license.
Who would ever have expected such a thing? 😀
So now I don’t have to put up a friend or a taxi driver to schlep me down to the county and wait while I stand in line and I stand in line and I stand in line and I stand in line and I stand in line and I stand in line and ….. Ad effing infinitum.
Seriously: the lines in that place are freakin’ endless. So this is a big relief.
It brings us back around to the question of whether I’m going to continue to drive the tank at all after this.
And y’know…hafta tellya the truth: I’m inclined to think not.
Why should I?
It has become surprisingly easy to get around this city without a car. Not as easy as in San Francisco. But…close.
Add to that the fact that an Uber driver lives right across the street from me!
Think o’that!
Between Uber and the city’s hugely improved public transit, the truth is…I may not need a car at all. If something comes up that it’s just totally unavoidable, there’s a place a block up the street where I can rent one!
Well. For sure, we’re going to experiment with that thesis. Let’s give it a few weeks to see if I can get around, hassle-free, without owning a tank.
Can you imagine? Not to have to do battle with
* licensing
* maintenance
* gasoline
* keeping the car out of the local thieves’ hands
* storing it in a garage
* pouring money into it
* pouring money into it
* and pouring money into it…
Jeeemineee! This looks like a whole new world!
