Renew!

Since I'll be driving my car up to Jacksonville this weekend, I decided it would probably be a good idea to renew my license tag, which was slightly expired. Fortunately, the penalty was only $15, but I wasted a check because I called ahead to find out how much it would cost, and filled out the check ahead of time — and the woman at the counter quoted me a different price. I asked her to double-check, because her price was $11.50 lower then what I had been told to pay, and she seemed surprised that I hadn't just silently accepted the lower price.

She was also amazed that I hadn't been pulled over for the expired plate. Considering that a friend of mine was pulled over in November for a plate that expired in November, I guess I've been lucky over the past ten months. I've got to learn how to stop procrastinating.

In other news, the UN has supported France's ban on dwarf-tossing, in order to "preserve human dignity". I'm sure they'll be censuring their member nations that practice slavery, child labor and clitoridectomies any day now.
