Flasher - Coming Soon to a DMV Near You

OMG! Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.

I just got my new license. My hair looks great and my fat-face problem isn't as apparent as it usually is. BUT I LOOK NAKED. Yes, NEVER wear a strapless top to your driver's license picture appointment. CRAP!

Here is how the conversation went at the DMV:
Me: Can you back the camera up as far as possible, I usually get fat face in my pictures.
Dude Behind the Counter: Really? Okay.
Chic Sitting next to Dude: Oh yeah (knowing glance at me), I know, I usually have that same problem.
Me: Yeah, the guy that took it last time actually took a second one because he agreed that my face looked fat in the first one!
Dude: Okay, it looks great! (Hindsight - he was really enthusiastic here.) You should receive it in about a week.
Me: (Feeling confident chic next to guy understands my problem, does not look at picture.) Thanks!

Shall we read between the lines?
Me: Blah, blah, blah, fat face.
Dude: Your face looking fat will be the least of your problems.
Chic: No kidding, you are gonna look like an escapee from a nudist camp.
Me: Whew, glad I did my hair today!
Dude: When will these girls learn? I mean really, she got her first license in what...1991?? Can't wait until she gets pulled over with this thing.
Me: Wow, everyone at this DMV is so great.

And really, now that I think about it, this guy was lame anyway. True, he got me in and out of the DMV in under 10 minutes (I was amazed) but he made me take my sunglasses off the top of my head for the picture. Really, because that is what is going to make identification difficult? If I am out somewhere and I am carded by a bouncer/police officer/bartender are they NOT going to accept my id because in my picture I have sunglasses on the top of my head and in real life I don't? (I mean, let's be honest, in real life I usually do too.) Shouldn't they be more concerned with the fact that I listed my weight as 120? Ha. Guess I pulled one over on them.

And before I get an "I told you so" comment from Sarah, when I went to her house afterwards for happy hour the conversation did go like this.

Sarah: Your hair looks great.
Me: Thanks, I did it today since I had to get my picture retaken for my driver's license.
Sarah: Oh no, you didn't wear that did you?
Me: (Looking down at cute, green strapless shirt) Yeah, why?
Sarah: You're gonna look naked!

Of course, re-reading this post, maybe the real problem is that I do my hair so infrequently. Hee hee!
