i am really home now....
i feel so good. i just put my new georgia license on the saturn. she is so happy! her new plate is silver and has a peach on it! it matches nicely.
i know most people don't feel like a license plate is that big of a deal. well, i am different. i love license plates. this one is actually very special for the following reasons....
1. it is the first license plate i have ever had under my own name and birthday.
2. i had to get over 10 documents together to obtain the license.
3. my license picture rocks.
4. it means i officially "live here"
i have never had a drivers license for any state but michigan. even though i have lived in three other states, i haven't ever committed enough to obtain a license. i lived in chicago for nearly two years and never put down roots. i have roots now. i have a home. gosh darn it....i am really happy about that. i finally feel good in my own skin in my new state.
it might be cheesey....but i feel like holly golightly in breakfast at tiffany's. i have finally bought some furniture and gave the cat a name! (or at least put a license plate on the car. either way, i have arrived.)
