Today we finally applied for our Washington driver's licenses. We were waiting until we had an electricity bill in order to prove residency in the state. The problem with it was that only Troy's name is on the bill, so I wasn't sure they would accept it for me. Anyway, we brought as much documentation as we could down to the licensing office. I just took my hour long lunch break early around 10 so we could avoid the lunch crowd and the crowd after work. They close at 4:30, and I had been checking the wait times all week and they were terrible at the end of the day, about an hour. I don't know why, but they didn't ask me for a utility bill when I applied. They asked what else I had to prove I live here and I had my WA car title that has our new address on it and our car insurance policy. They took that along with my old TX driver's license and my social security card. I was surprised that worked, but glad they didn't hassle me about it.
So, I'm really glad that's over with. I wish I could have kept my old picture though, I don't like the new one at all. Now I just need to apply for a passport...
We moved to Seattle in February 2008 and shared blog posts and photos during our first few years in Seattle.
