New mouse and license

MOUSE
Last night I finally decided to splurge and get a new mouse for my laptop. It's the only computer I use at work, and I've had an old, old cheapy mouse that I used to use until it decided it would only move to the right but not the left. That's not handy. I've been using the little pad, but I stopped at Best Buy and bought a Microsoft Wireless Notebook Optical 3000. Yessss. It is nice having a mouse again. And it's pretty slick too.

DRIVERS LICENSE
This morning I ran to town and got a new drivers license (actually, I drove). I didn't even know mine was about to expire until I applied for my passport a few weeks ago. I'm glad the clerk told me or I never would have thought about it. At any rate, for those of you in the Fort Wayne area, I went to the new Wayndale branch. Wow... I walked right in and someone helped me immediately. I bet I wasn't there ten minutes, and five minutes was spent waiting on my picture to develop. And I have to admit.... I passed the eye exam (apparently), but when I first looked at line five.... man, I could hardly make it out at all. I guess I guessed good. I was a bit surprised at the price. I was expecting it to be $21, but it was $34.50. I don't remember having to pay extra for a motorcycle endorsement. I don't really even need the motorcycle license - I don't currently have a motorcycle - but I hate to get rid of it, because as the laws stand now I wouldn't be required to wear a helmet if I did get a bike, but if I had to get a new license I would need a helmet. I only wore a helmet one time when I had a bike, and that was because there was a torrential downpour. Also, my new license is still horizontal. I thought it was going to be vertical. I guess it must depend on your age. At least now I don't have to get it renewed again until 2012.

CELL PHONE
On the way home I got a call on my cell phone. It was a wrong number. They wanted to know if my truck was still for sale. I should have said yes. Anyway, it always startles me when my phone rings, because only like 5 people in the whole world know my number. I just don't like being at everyone's beck and call at any and all times. Maybe I should be, but..... I dunno. I'm just not a phone guy. Send me an email instead.
