Round 4: License to Ki--er, Drive

In a bold move that is seemingly against all they stand for, the bureaucracies of Michigan and New York have worked. The Michigan SoS did in fact send me a record of my license that proves how long I've had it. And the New York DMV actually aceepted it without question. So all that remained to do was wait in line. And wait I did, but in the end, I walked out the door with my head held high and a temporary New York driver's license in my hand.

Admittedly, I won't be completely breathing easy until the permanent license finds its way to me. But for the time being, I'm thankful for small victories.

Round 3: Pinch Hitting for #11 New York DMV, is #26 Michigan SoS

So I find myself wondering, where is this record the Michigan Secretary of State is supposed to be mailing me?

I call up the SoS to find out what the deal is. Turns out that whoever I'd talked to before was on a substantial amount of drugs at the time. There was no record of my call. And even if there was, they couldn't send me the report, they could only send me the application for the report. I still have to pay $8 before they'll print the report and send it. So they faxed the application to me, and I faxed it back to them.

$8 poorer, and still waiting.
