Expiration, schhhmexpiration

So... remember how I was really excited to get my grown-up, SIDEWAYS driver's license? ....That dream has been postponed. I went to the Driver's License Division to renew my license, but they REJECTED me (only AFTER my mom and I had waited in line for 40 minutes) because my license doesn't actually expire until my next birthday, since I didn't get the license until over 6 months after my 16th birthday. Uncool.
Such is life. I'm ok with waiting. It's worth saving the $18 bucks they would have charged me to get a sideways-facing license without renewing it. Bright side: I still got to go home to hang out with my fam, even though my original reason for returning home didn't turn out right. In the meantime, I will just deal with the driver's license that makes me look like a minor.

21

So... Today is my 21st birthday.

WHAT?!?

I remember being 10 and thinking that I would never make it to age 21. That's so OLD. I remember thinking a similar thing at age 16. And 17 and 18 and 19 and 20. But now I'm 21 and I still feel like I'm 14 in a lot of ways. And in a lot of other ways, I feel like I'm 30 (which is also NOT OLD... or so I hear). All of this growing up business is very time-warpish. I'm not sure how to deal with it.

In other news, I forgot to renew my driver's license. Ooooooooops. I NEVER THOUGHT THIS DAY WOULD COME! I get to have a SIDEWAYS-FACING driver's license!
