Cheston is right, it was weird going to bed on Election Night and not biting my nails or pulling my hair out. It’s good to see some balance restored; I’ve been telling myself for 6 years now that it is all cyclical, and eventually things would even out a bit, but it was starting to feel like a pipe dream.
It’s also great to see Deval Patrick take the governorship here in Massachusetts… Kerry Healey exuded pure evil..
Had some excitement yesterday that I’ll hopefully be able to talk about in a few days… I also renewed my license, and took the opportunity to get a strike a pose for a new license photo, as I always hated the old one… Last night we played some Quake 4, although I was definitely off my game..
Wow. I just got my NJ license converted into a MA license in less than 30 minutes. Walk in, get into the queue (and the paper with my number on it also tells me an estimated wait time). Wait 18 minutes (exactly the amount of time printed on the paper), go up front, give them my NJ license, show them my phone bill, take a quick vision test, get my picture taken, sign on the dotted line, and voila! I now have a Temporary Massachusetts Drivers License (with the permanent one coming in the mail), and I am also registered to vote in this area now.
Every DMV should take a lesson from this one, the place was busy, but they were handling it well.
