Our licenses are weird colored. When you're under 21, they're red, but if you're over 21, then they're like a sunset kind of color ranging from light blue to yellow and orange. :\ Freakin' Ohioans.
EDIT: Oh, and I just remembered, when you get your temporary license (i.e. learner's permit to drive), those are brown. :P /Random ID information keeps popping up in my head now.
EDIT2: Speaking of random ID information, I'm going to need to renew my license soon since it's expiring on me in a few months. Ugh. Wonder how much that'll be. |
Random Oklahoma ID information: When you're under 21, your ID is printed vertically on the card, with a little box under your picture that says "Under 21 until mm/dd/yyyy" and "Under 18 until mm/dd/yyyy." (So much stuff involved to make sure you can't fake an Oklahoma ID/license, and also to make it easier for people to tell if you're underage or not.)
So my ID is red (non-license ID) AND printed vertically, because I got it just before I turned 20.
It always gives bartenders several moments of "WTF?!" because if you're an idiot and DON'T read the part that says "Under 21 until 03/03/2008," you'd think I was underage. They always have to stop and look at their little "If you were born after today's date in YYYY, we will not sell you alcohol" thing.
It's so much trouble for some people to decipher my true age from our ridiculously complicated state ID's that they don't even notice that my ID expired in August of LAST YEAR, lol.

Anyway, aside from all the random ID talk, I'm thinking I REALLY hope my friend can get his alternator fixed...like right now. Because if he can't, then I won't be able to see him before he goes back to Mississippi on Sunday, and then I will have to cry and be sad and drink more than I should.
