You know what I hate?
Malls
You know what I hate more than malls?
The DMV
I figure hell on earth would be a DMV inside a mall, and I think I was pretty close. Saturday @ work my radio fell out of my pants so I put it back inside my back pocket and noticed something was missing, namely my wallet. My best guess was that it must've fallen out while I was in the belly of a 727 bound for Grand Forks North Dakota, so I went back to said airplane and waded as best I could through the packages in search of it, but I came up empty handed. Making matters worse, I was running a little late for work that day and didn't get any coffee or food, so I had a pretty good headache at the same time all this was going on. I wouldn't have been stressed about it but I have to start my training tomorrow and I need a drivers license to take the class. Anyways, my manager called the ramp at Grand Forks so there's still a tiny chance I might yet see my wallet. Today I got up pretty early and went to the express DMV at Hickory Ridge, man that mall sucks ass. Complicating matters, their printer took a shit on em when they were only five people away from calling my number. So I looked for a bookstore, the only one I found in the damn place only sold african american literature. So I went to the food court, I had a whopping three restaurants to choose from there, so that was a no go. Defeated by the extreme crappiness of the mall, I straggled back to the DMV choosing purgatory instead of hell in the process. They got the printer fixed about ten minutes later and not too soon after that I got my new license. The picture is of an unshaven dude who hasn't showered in a couple of days, and who has been waiting in a line for two hours, in other words it's about par for the course for me on a typical monday. I'm going to do my laundry and see about getting a new bank card.
