...can give you such a crick in the neck

So, this morning I woke up around 8:30, got jostled awake by the alarm, and then remembered that I'm not working today, and that I just need to go get a passport done, and so fell asleep for a while longer.

Around 10:30 I finally get up and head to the Passport Office. I came back around 2.

Bizarre. I waited in one room (sitting down) for about an hour, I guess (I deliberately was not paying attention to the clock), and met with a nice, older person and we swapped a couple of Palm programs. :P

Then we get shuffled into a small waiting-line (standing) for about 10 minutes while one guy checks out our documents and makes sure we have everything before giving us a ticket number and moving into another room (sitting again) for another hour before I got up to a clerk and handed over all the stuff.

I had forgotten to put in my Eye Colour. After a short deliberating with the clerk over Blue-Grey or Blue, "Blue" it is.

So, all in all, I managed to get through a couple of magazines that I wanted to read, so now my bookbag's lighter, and I'll have my passport in 2 weeks.

Aaand, I'm off again. Even when I'm not working, my days are packed. ^_^

I'm going to see Kevin Smith tomorrow night! Eeeee! :D Three Cheers for Chris! :) (Speaking of which, are there plans for tomorrow for meeting up or anything?)

He's gonna be at Roy Thomson Hall tomorrow doing a Q&A.

I never really mentioned it since I went to get tickets on the first day and they were already snapped up. ;_;

I should have warned you about the passport office. It's always better to go around 8:30... Only takes like 1 hour then...

You and Dave both.

I forgot to mention this sign I saw as I was leaving that said "come at less busy times to avoid waiting" with an hour-by-hour breakdown of wait-times (green-yellow-red related to duration of wait) - save for 7 hours at the beginning of the day (from 8-9 each day, and were yellow) the rest were red. XD

It's times like that, where you really need a GBA :p

You woke up by the alarm while it wasn't necassery? And you didn't kill the alarm? ;)))

I deliberately set the alarm so that I would get up fairly early - as opposed to a day like today, where I still had my alarm on at 8:30, and finally got up at 11:30! XD
