Damn got denied..again

So status talk again..We're still shopping around for lawyers. I've read horrible stories of people being robbed of their time and money because of crooks. I hope we find someone honest & capable soon. Anyway I was at Walmart the other day since I'm stocking up on supplies for L's big 1st bday. I want to make cake stands out of plate and candle holders. So I wanted to buy spray paint to cover it all pretty. When I arrived to the register I had all my supplies ready. I started unloading and she said "I'm gonna need Identification to purchase the paint". I obviously don't look anything near 23. Uh yes I understand you must card for cig & booze..but paint. Really .??i hurried to find my "i.d." I searched in the diaper bag, in my pockets, and finally I showed her the only I.d. I posses, but that's my fault I've been putting off getting my passport. I need to soon. She told me that it wasn't valid.The guy behind kinda was rolling his eyes, I know this because I was embarrassed by my lack of "I.d.". That I looked around to see who was tuning in. Even though this has happened many other times I always manage to feel so small. I bet she's thinking why I just can't run out and get "real identification". If it were only that easy. Now I have no paint. The good thing is with L not yet sleeping through the night I may soon look very old & wrinkly :) and not need an i.d. at all.

On to happier things..I'm taking L to the Zoo today, Hopefully I won't crave a beer or a cig. Will post pics later
