I.D. G.

Some time in the next few weeks I have to renew my Driver's License, and I am in a slight state of trepidation. Once I had a good Driver's License photo -- I made business cards out of it, in those lazy, hazy days before identity theft and homeland security. That was the only good photo, though. The rest have been like something out of the frog family. My other Driver's License challenge comes in the form of the little larcenist within when asked to report my weight. My fear is that they'll put a scale in the BMV, and out our extra pounds, like miles over the speed limit.. I have had troubles in the past when it comes to the hair color question; mine changes with the wind. For awhile I had three at once. I am now fairly uniformly dark, with some bright red involved. Do you think I could say "Red Winged Blackbird" when they ask me that one? The big thing is I know that should anything untoward happen to me, this Driver's License photo would be what you see on the local news report about my unfortunate parting. I should put www.therememberingsite.org as my address. That way, my I.D. would tell who I am, instead of trying to explain in an ill-lighted photo of a frog-like being, not as weightless as she'd like to be.
