Well because today is the day I decided to register my car. I have been contemplating this notion for the last month - well if you want to get technical it has been more like the last 2 years. You see my registration was rolling up on the 2 years expired anniversary and I have grown quite attached to this little expired sticker on my license plate. I was rocking vintage colors - no one was sporting my registration color anymore. It made me stand out from the crowd, I was for once - someone! But I figured it was about time to catch up on a couple of things, a little spring cleaning so to speak. Despite all the bitching I heard from neighbors, coworkers and friends, the DMV in California, at least for me, was a pleasurable experience. I went in, there was no line, the front desk lady was pleasant and courteous. The person inspecting my car was as nice if not nicer than the front desk lady. And it ended up costing me a bunch less then I was expecting it to! A good start to the day.
