Looking Back It Is Funny Now

On the 8th of February I went down to the DMV in Jacksonville, NC to get a new Drivers License. I have been married for two years and my license still has the last name of Fox on it, so I decided it is high time to get that changed. WELL.... I went down to the DMV and it was a three hour wait!!! Luckly I had brought hidden picture books for Britton to do and Edward was a sleepy boy. FINALLY it was my turn and I go to station #2 to get my license. As I am at the station filling out what I need to the lady tells me I can go to computer "A" and take my driving test. WHAT? I asked her what driving test she was talking about and she told me in a carcastic voice, "the one the lady at the front counter gave you the pamphlet to study for." UM, no one gave me a pamphlet! So she hands me a pamphlet and tells me to go to the computer and take the test, so I assumed that the test was open book (open pamphlet) and started the test while I looked through the pamphlet. OH GOODNESS! The next think I know I have a 70 year old, male security guard yelling at me about how this is not an open book test and that I should know better than to "cheat" on a driving test. He confinscated the pamphlet and asked me with a furl of his brow if he needed to restart my test because I was cheating (keep in mind this was for all to hear in the DMV... and it was packed). I wanted to tell him he should just spank me instead but I was afraid I would be arrested or something. So I am "allowed" to finish the test (with the guard watching me to make sure I don't try to cheat)and it is all questions that have to do with NC driving laws like how fast is the normal speed inside most NC cities? How the crap should I know? So ends up I flunk the test!!! AHHHH! So I am directed to a chair where I need to wait until they can meet with me. Well there I am totally embarresed with Britton who is starting to act up (rightfully so after being there at this point for 3.5 hours) and Edward who just woke up from a long nap and is really fussy because he is hungry. So I tell Britton that we need to go to the bathroom. The bathroom was right by the back door, I told Britton loud enough so that people would hear where we were going and we headed in the direction of the bathroom, THEN.... We snuck out the back door and made a break for our car. Britton was asking me as we were running to the car why we were not going to the bathroom (he was totally confused). I never looked back!
So there it is, I had to sneak out of the DMV Office. Now I am scared that they are out to get me and I better not get pulled over because I am scared they will have written down that I failed the Driving test and they will haul my butt to jail. I am sure they can't but I am still freaked out. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Sometimes... I TELL YA!
