License to drive
I renewed my driver's license today, and like most folks who realize they're going to be carrying this photo of themselves for the next 6-12 years, I spent a lot of time preparing.
I don't mean I brushed my hair, shaved and picked out a flattering shirt. Instead I went on a bender last night, stayed out until dawn with friends and hit every bar in a 10 mile radius.
When I rolled into the DMV at 7:00 am, just as my night was ending, my eyes were bloodshot, I had enough of a five o'clock shadow to pass off as a Billy-goat, and it looked like my hair was trying to flee my head in 12 different directions. I figure, if I'm going to be pulled over, that's most likely the condition I'm going to be in, so it's in everyone's best interest that I look like the photo on my license.

I guess it's truth in advertising at work...

however: what of the impression your new photo'll have on those ladies who'll steal your license out of your wallet to see how old you really are?

Unfortunately by the time those ladies ask, I'm probably already in that state.
