drivers license renewal

Does anyone know if there's a grace period on drivers license renewals? Because I would really like to wait until I get my hair cut. I don't want to have a drivers license photo for six years with the wretched hair I have now. But my hair appointment isn't until the 26th, and my license expires on the 29th. That's cutting it a bit close, especially considering that most of the day on the 28th will be taken up with Lina's appointment in Raleigh.

My hairdresser, David Sutton, is really hard to get an appointment with. I usually schedule my next appointment as I'm paying for the last one. But this time I screwed up and had to reschedule because of our trip. I didn't realize it until about a week before the appointment (which was scheduled for the 6th), and the first available they had was on the 26th. Argh! I've started wearing hats to cover the shaggy mess that is my hair, but they won't let you wear a hat for your DMV photo. (I tried once; they did not find "but I wear hats all the time, I look more like myself in a hat!" a convincing argument.)

Maybe if my hair appointment is early enough in the day, I could drive to the DMV straight from it. That would cut down on the chances of getting busy and accidently letting my license expire, and also my hair would look extra nice for the photo.

Is this the most vain entry I've ever written in this journal? I think maybe it is.

i didn't see anything about a grace period on the web site.

have you experimented with putting gel in your hair? that worked so well at halloween-- maybe it would be a good way to control it now that it's a little long.
