Had to renew my driver’s license in person today. Texas allows one renewal online, but today I had to brave the DMV. Or as Texas inexplicably calls it, DPS.

It wasn’t Kafkaesque—it was actually quite easy once I found an office with an appointment—but the wait was worse than a doctor’s office. My 3:40 appointment wasn’t called until nearly 5pm, at which point it took less than ten minutes to complete.

Oh well, I don’t need to do that again for a long time.
