Jen
 

 
Ahh, this will be me in just over two weeks. (Actually, this was me back in the beginning of June in Malibu.  I'm just hoping to recreate this moment.)
 
Matt and I started packing up my room yesterday, which is a bigger job than it sounds.  Actually, my closet itself is a bigger job than it sounds.   I'm glad he was there, helping me weed throught the crap.  I really needed someone to constantly tell me things such as "Jen, look at that Seaweed shirt.  When was the last time you wore that? It has holes everywhere." or "George Michael?!?  On a t-shirt? Please tell me you were young when you got this."  (I was in 4th grade, just an FYI.)  So, I finally got rid of the gems in my collection of t-shirts and narrowed down a good 16 bags of clothes to a more managable eight. 
 
I went to the DMV on Friday to renew my drivers license.  (it expires in August and I didn't want to deal with it right after moving.)  It costs $10 for a renewal and upon standing in line, I realized that I only had $9.45 in my purse.  The Secretary of State only takes cash, check (I had none) or Discover (I know!  What's wrong with Visa!)  I don't have a Discover card, so I went back to my car to search for change.  I only had 50 cents, leaving me a nickle short.  I could have easily left and ran to the bank, but I didn't know where the closest bank is near the Elston DMV, and it was getting late in the day and I didn't want to waste anymore time.  So, I searched around the cars for a bit and found 2 cents, which obviously wasn't going to cut it.  Luckily enough, a woman pulled up next to me and I sheepishly asked her for 5 cents to pay for my license.  She had it!  Yay! Thanks to the nice lady in the parking lot!
 
I also had to take the written driving test and I scored 100%.  The woman who graded my test told me I was her first perfect score of the day.  When I looked at my watch, it was 3:45.  The DMV closes at 5. 
 
ok, back to work.
