Official Noogans

Eric and I went down to the local DMV this morning to get our driver's license. No big deal right? Wrong! My picture on my license is awful! I have never had a picture this bad. I sat down in front of the camera and the lady said, "Ready on the count of three". I smiled and waited for three but three came and went. It was more like four or maybe five and then the flash. So, when I thought the photo was finished, it wasn't and it got me with a goofy look on my face. I was very unhappy.
After that disappointment, I headed towards the registration place to get a new tag. As soon as I get there, the lady tells me that I have to have an emissions test and sent me BACK to the DMV. Crazy! I get there and the sign says cash only. Cash only?! Oh my gosh! I had to go find an ATM to get the money for the stupid test. Once the test was completed (I passed by the way) I went back to get the tag. FINALLY!!! While I was there, a woman next to me in another line was renewing her tag. She must have been 90 years old. I didn't really think too much about it until I was behind her on the road driving 20 MPH in a 45 MPH zone. Way to go TN! Just let anyone drive. Good Grief!
So, I have been telling myself that everyone here in Chattanooga must have awful license pictures, especially if they go to the same place we went to. Eric's didn't turn out any better. He looks like some kind of predator in his picture.
Anyway. I'm glad that's over and now I have my TN tag and a hideous license.
To top it all off, I was asked to show that ridiculous license 3 more times today! And, because it's the worst picture ever, I know that people at stores or restaurants are gonna ask for my ID and it'll make me cringe everytime I have to pull that stupid thing out. Swell!

I think you should post your drivers license picture! You can't tease us like that.
