Great start to the day!

So I went to get a warrant of fitness for the car and get a new driver’s license at the same time. I go to pay for the license and for some reason they don’t accept credit cards, and my eftpos card was declined because I bought petrol on Wednesday and forgot to put more money in the account. Luckily I had enough cash. Then I go to do the eye test and I can’t see what I’m supposed to in that eye testing machine.

e.g. it’s supposed to look like this

1 ABCD EFGH IJKL
2 JHGF UYTR POIU
3 BGRF HJNK TRFG

but I see

1 1 AEBC IFGH
2 2 JUVP OUIR
3 3 BGJN KTRG

And the letters are kind of merging with each other and it’s all very strange. The woman behind the counter says “now read the third block of text” and I said “there are only two blocks of text” and she said “Are you sure?” and then she got another customer to have a look and he could see 3 blocks. I heard the woman behind the counter say it happened to another person and her husband had to look in the machine to prove to his wife that there really were supposed to be 3 blocks of letters. I did see three blocks for an instant when I looked at the wall and then looked back into the machine but I couldn’t see it properly, I could only get 2 columns.

So I went to the optometrist and it was open but the optometrist was sick. WHY WAS IT OPEN IF THERE WAS NO OPTOMETRIST? So now I’ll have to do it next weekend…

Then I got a call from the warrant of fitness place to tell me that they only put a 6 month sticker on the car instead of a 1 year one so I had to go all the way back again. I’m glad they called and got it fixed…
