So, today was quite filled up.  I believe I had only two 30 minute breaks ever.  It started out being woken up w/ my mom & dad looking for my birth certificate because I wanted to get my Permit today.  Well after an hour we got together 5 other "points" of identification along with a COPY of the BC.  Well of course as you would expect they don't accept copies so we went home to look for another HOUR And then went to the courthouse to get another one, then when we get to the Courthouse we find out we have to go next door to the Civic center and Statistical Analysis or something.  Then $30 and a fresh NYS seal of approval later we were at the DMV, I got my picture taken (not too shabby) then I took the test.  I thought I had all but 3 of them (there were 20 total), then when I got the test back...AFTER PASSING IT OF COURSE, YAY!...I found I had completely misread the first question about yielding to traffic on the right.  I know the person on the right goes first but and I put 'right' but I guess it said 'who yields?'  Aghh, that happens.  Wasn't that bad of a wait either, OF COURSE THERE SHOULDN'T BE ON BLACKKK FRIDAYYY.  The actual ID will take 10-15 days to get here and so for now I have a temp., but I don't think I'm ready to do THAT much driving just yet.  Just a few blocks and side streets and stuff, maybe.  
    Later we went to Pavone's in downtown and got some great pizza, it was nice to see downtown today, I don't often get a chance to go there.  Afterwards I showed mom and then from Noon until 3:30 I helped work on my cousin Mark's basement, where my dad's building a room.  I cut in for $28, not bad.  Then like an hour later I spent $22.50 @ Target, lol.  On HIS Birthday present, ha ha.  Well I met Chelsea there @ 5, we walked around for a bit with slow conversation and then we got Peppermint Hot Chocolate at the Starbuck's and had a wonderful conversation and gossip session.  I've still got plenty more though, believe me.  Agh, wow yeah a lot to ponder about from that conversation.  Fell outta my seat (stool) at one/ two points thank you very much.  We both went and looked at B-Day cards for my dad, because tommorrow the family is celebrating his birthday and what would have been grandma's 86th.  Ha, I have two great ones now, I don't know how I'll choose by tommorrow, it's a psychology one and a Bushism one.  I decided to get him Room 1408 too, which said it was $19.99 and then the cards were about $2.25 & $2.50, but it only came out to $22.50 exactly, I thought it'd be $24, $25 or $26 even, but supposedly today Target, along with EVERYWHERE had 'the sale of the year'.  CAN YOU BELIEVE JCPenney opened at 4AM, 4 Fricking AM, 4 GahhhhhhhhAM.  Disgusting, 4AM!!!  
   Oh, I'm tired now, but next entry I have to tell you about later at Chelsea's with her aunt, mom & dad.  We played like the best game of Scrabble ever with great background music.
