Gas Is Expensive. Right?

Took care of some loose ends today. Paid up the car insurance and got the rate sorted out with State Farm. Dropped all my Best Buy rebate checks in the bank. I'm now the proud owner of a Georgia Driver's license. $20 for a 5 year license seems fair to me. And the DMV here is nothing compared to Philly. It took about 45 minutes, but it was very organized and the people were normal looking. And I made sure to have on my finest Supersuckers T-shirt when they snapped my "angry" face picture for the new ID.

What I can't seem to find in this town is a decent tailor. I have some jeans I need hemmed and I can't find a place anywhere close by that will take care of me. This is what my life has resorted to, a laundry list of errands makes the papers. Speaking of laundry I guess I should do some of that as well today. Having a day off in the middle of the week is useless. Especially here. Everyone I know here is working, so that means I spend the day in my head, being lazy, watching TV, surfing the internet. Wait, who am I kidding? I did this exact shit up North on my off days. Thank God I have Kanye West here with me to teach me the ways of being a pimp.

I wrote out a ton of postcards today to people, a little greeting to let them know I'm alive and that I miss them. I'm a huge fan of the postcard as correspondence. It's more personal than email or a voicemail, but you can be brief. I have a tendancy to give away too much or ramble on when I am working on a letter. It's like I approach a letter like a suicide note, I don't want anything to be unclear, so I repeat things or clarify shit over and over. It's annoying to me, so I can only imagine how people feel when they read this here online diary or whatever this is.
