That is what time I arrived at the DMV this morning, book & iPod in tow. I was ready to wait in line.
After a mere five minutes, I made it to the front of the vehicle registration line and was expecting the worst. I explained the situation (see previous post) and the woman behind the counter said "Here is your number, wait over there, hon". What? She called me "hon"? And not in a weird way, but in the way that older waitresses at a 1950s themed diner call you "hon".
I was just turning on my iPod, ready to wait it out, when not 2 seconds after jeans met plastic chair did my number get called. WTF? I approached the window, received a pleasant greeting, explained the situation and -voila!- paid (with no extra late fees!), and took my receipt to the next window and got my sticker.
How much time did this take?
As I walked out the door and looked at my watch, it was !gasp! only 7:55 A.M.
10 minutes. Anyone know Guinness' phone number??

Katy,
Madeleine here. Wow! I was at DMV Fell Street in the city just after 8am today without an appointment, and was seen literally in A FLASH.. in and out in no time!! which sounds just like your experience.. guess the jokes about DMV aren't true!
that's impressive. after i read your last 2 entries i scrolled up and noticed that your ads featured 2 for vehicle registration. does google do that on purpose? how funny.
oh i just followed to google link. they do do it on purpose (hehe do do). do you get cash?
