It's official.

I'm a Florida resident! I just got back from taking my license pic at the DMV. You just know that's always a good time waiting to happen. Luckily for me, I made an "appointment" to have this done. Unluckily for me, either Florida or Michigan's system "went down," and I STILL had to wait... though not as long as the other 150 people crammed into the 30x30' space that is the Jacksonville area Department of Motor Vehicles.

Highlight? Walking out of the place with my new license (that I look ridiculous in, as the girl snapped the picture while I wasn't paying attention) and there is a woman and her (approximately 4 year old) son, carried by his arm... "YAYYY!! This means we don't gots to be afraid of the police no mo!!!" followed by squeals from the young'n. I wanted to laugh my ass off, but I was right in front of her. So I waited til I got in my car and busted up..... until I realized my sun roof was wide open. So I called Jennifer to share in my laughter. That all happened.

Sooo.... that's ONE thing off of the gigangic list of things that I need to do for myself, including:
1) Visiting tax attorney's office to transfer my title to Florida
2) Getting plates and tags for my vehicle
3) Finding a dentist
4) Finding a doctor
5) Get 6 month teeth cleaning appointment (currently due for)
6) Get cavity filled (currently PASTTT due for)
7) Visit new doctor, establish relationship, demand answers to my dry skin predicament
8) Pay for all of the beforementioned, somehow.
9) Find new place to live before May 1... if not before April 1

IN OTHER NEWS!

Mitch and Jenn are coming to JACK TOWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Not only that, but I beat out a trip to JAMAICA! They were between coming to Jax to see us, or going to Jamaica... yeah! So they'll be here next Friday, and then we're going to DISNEY WORLD ON MONDAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!

I AM SO EXCITED FOR THE NEXT FEW WEEKS!

What an outstanding weekend.

All things are good.

Friday was another good night at Kickbacks.

Saturday was doing my part to revive the economy by dropping a fat grand on hair, tires, dinner, and Matrix Trilogy box set in Blu-Ray. Yep, that all happened. So much for the budget.

Sunday was the DONNA MARATHON... which was SO fun and SO inspiring. I'm pretty sure we want to run it next year... whether it be the full or the half. There's no reason why a 79 year old man can finish 26.2 miles and I can't... that's just a slap in my fat ass to get serious. The idea of running that far makes my head explode... do you know how far that is?

For my Flint readers: it's from Applebees on Miller Road to OWOSSO.

For my Grand Rapids readers? A marathon is like RUNNING, no STOPPING, from Grand Haven to WALKER:
