Well... this is bull shit i dont think i can go anymore

apparently i need a passport to enter the us, and a passport takes about 6 weeks to get, and XW is in less then 6 weeks, very pissed
Cant you get a fast passport?

Well i found out last tuesday that my passport was expired, so i went to the offices, one office said that it would take 30 days, but another office cleared it up saying it would take like 3-4 days since there was lately no lagging, and fast-made passports which were like 2x more expensive, they would be ready in 2 business days for sure. I made a regular passport for cheaper and got it on thursday already, haha. I was lucky.

You should find out if there's a chance of making an urgent passport, i'm sure there is a solution for that.

Hmmm, well then, i will have to see, but money was one of the issues in the first place

You probably got your passport soon because it was a renewal not a brand new one. Usually with brand new ones it takes ~6 weeks but if you want it sooner you can usually have it expedited in 2-3 weeks if you want to pay a little more.

You can get through with your birth certificate. They will let you because of the insane hold up with passports.

ugh not really a huge issue, but i was sort of planning on taking my moms car since its 4 door and everything (she just got it, 07 chevy malibu)... but about 10 minutes ago she got into an accident.

she was turning right and behind another car turning right, and there was a semi turning left. car in front of her was trying to not get hit by semi and i guess just slammed it into reverse directly into the car.

idk how long insurance and shit takes to happen so ill probs have to take my car now (2 door, less room) and if worse comes to worse i can always use my dads blazer, which gets such shitty mpg though. whateverr.
