Mission accomplished...
Jun. 19th, 2008 01:50 pmWe now have our marriage license safely stowed away until the magic words are said on Monday.
We remembered change for the meters, so parking was not a problem, and there were only 3 couples in line when we got there (with 3 windows) so we were all finished and out before 11am.
One amusing note is the health pamphlet they are required to give to all couples (which they started doing when they stopped requiring blood tests for marriage licenses).
Over half the pamphlet is dedicated to pregnancy health issues.
I'm not complaining; healthy babies and moms are important. I'm just amused.
The clerk mentioned that she *loved* the fact that her signature was on all the licenses she'd done; she'd been waiting a long time to be able to issue such licenses.
