Awhile ago I got something in the mail from the DMV. It was a letter telling me that I could renew my driver's license by mail due to my driving record. I promptly sent in the information they requested along with a check. That was about a month and a half ago. My driver's license expires on my birthday. I haven't gotten my new license yet and am a bit worried. I'm going on a road trip (and will be the only one able to drive) around the time of my birthday and if I don't get the license by the time I leave we will be stuck away from home with no way to get back. In other words, I need my new license before I leave or I can't go on the road trip (and will lose the money for the hotel).

For those of you who have renewed your license by mail, when does it usually come? For anyone reading this - any suggestions? I need that license before my trip or I'm screwed. Help? Suggestions on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Another thing that has been on my mind recently is the car tax. I recently sent in my payment (it was $815) for my registration. Now that Arnold's in office he's claiming he'll get rid of the car tax. Good. But will those of us who already paid an arm and a leg to keep our cars get some sort of refund? I could sure use some of that money back considering that I'm out of work and all.
