Day 5
We woke up early to go down to the DMV to get our Florida licenses changed to California ones. Having our original licenses wasn't enough; we had to bring our birth certificates. So we have to go back there tomorrow.We did, however, pick up the car Isabel's father gave us. Got insurance on it. Now all we need is to get it smog-tested and registered. I never knew getting a car was so complicated (and expensive). But when we finally get it going (which should be tomorrow, I hope) we'll finally be able to get our shopping done on our own schedule. I really do appreciate everything Isabel's family has been doing for us, but it's stressful having to choose a major appliance within 20 minutes because that's all the time we have until someone has to go to class. I'm not good at making major decisions quickly. I need to be reassured about things. I need to believe that I'm getting the best deal and hear it from three complete strangers. It drives my wife crazy.
And my game of choice? Well, our gamecube doesn't have a TV to plug into. Our computer is in a kind-of-public place and we have to keep swapping cables. Our PS2 is still in the mail (and will hopefully arrive real soon now). So I've got a SNES emulator and I'm playing ActRaiser. We've got Mario & Luigi: Super Star Saga as well. Addicting, it is. I beat ActRaiser so I'll probably just emulate the Super Mario RPG now.
