So after finishing grading papers, during which time I found the most blatant case of stupid "academic dishonesty" as it were that I've ever had to deal with, I went to the nearby license photo center to go get my license renewed because I've now been in this state for almost four years and the license expires the day after my birthday. So I went to the place down the street, where I was informed that I had to go to the big PennDOT center in Allentown (not in a great area, either) 20 minutes away to deal with them because some idiot screwed up almost four years ago and never bothered putting in the system that I have a PA DL - they seemed for some asinine reason to assume that I had a KS DL, despite the fact that I haven't had one of those since I moved here. So I had to drive 20 minutes, wait in line OUTSIDE for half an hour, then get inside, wait in line for ANOTHER 43 minutes, and then explain the situation to someone who just stared at me for a second and then handed me an affidavit to sign saying that I didn't have an out of state license. All of that to sign a piece of paper because some idiot screwed up. And then I had to rush the 20 minutes back home, grab Nunk, put her in her carrier, have her jump OUT of her carrier, pick her back up and try and shove her in again at which point she clawed her way around my back (one claw went so deep that it punctured my jeans and actually made my butt bleed) and go tearing off so that I finally had to move the futon in the study to get ahold of her and get her in her carrier. Then drive 25 minutes to the vet, then wait through that, and then bring her back home, and am now waiting for Tony to get done with some laundry so I can drop my kids' papers off at school, run by Banana to see if I can get a skirt to match the blazer I got at the Banana outlet store (simple black, so it shouldn't be hard), and then grab some dinner.
The only upside to this whole day is that the scratches and sores on Nunks that had me worried are actually healing well and apparently were from Piggers. So Piggers is in a bit of trouble, but Nunk at least is not on any antibiotics. YAY!!!
And I would really love it if our Senate would quit pussyfooting around and actually DEBATE the Iraq policy (gasp...), and if Fox would realize that watching their "half hour news hour" was like watching a train wreck in action. Their Jon Stewart replacements are sanctimonious little twits, and that was the best part of the show...
I hate today. At least Tony and I go to Chicago tomorrow...
