Since I didn't get as early as a start as I'd planned I decided to go to the RTA to take care of the car's title transfer in the late afternoon. I was going to go for a swim, but I just couldn't motivate with the rain so ended up sitting in the house finishing a program and setting up a web page so that it could be released (HiP, here's the web page).
Drove down town and started the search for a parking place. Most of the streets downtown are no parking between three and six so this was quite a challenge. Started running out of time and was in danger of having the RTA close on me so I gave up and parked in a structure. Got to the RTA and my theory had worked, by coming so late there were no lines! Unfortunately didn't get the transfer done. My passport isn't good enough - they want a second form of ID, and my Washington State drivers licence doesn't qualify! It has to be a credit card or bankcard - both of which I left at the house today. So I spent my afternoon and A$14 on parking and didn't accomplish anything. This RTA bussiness is starting to seem like a soap opera, but I'll try again tomorrow on my way to Canberra.
On my way home stopped at an Internet cafe to update my journal and put up the program and web page I worked on this morning. Back at the house I watched TV until Sof and Chris got home than we worked on a jigsaw puzzle - no the most exciting night, but strangely enjoyable.
