Months pass. It's April 2006. I try to renew my license only to find that I can't. My license was suspended for failing to show in court for the ticket on the car.

They did try to notify me. Their error was attempting it my mail. Since the anthrax thing just after 9/11, I don't do mail. I never liked mail. And, it seemed a good time to cut it off for good.

So I did not know. And, I was living on my savings. So I decided that since I wasn't planning on ever having a car again, why pay?

So I let it stay suspended and went on with life.
