(Sigh) I just got off the phone with my partner. He got pulled over this afternoon and his car was impounded! Ever since he left PR and moved back to Minnesota, he's had problems with the DMV and getting an official license. At first, he applied (I think he had to take both the written and driving tests actually because his PR license had expired), and they gave him a temporary license and said to expect the official one in the mail. After several months it still hadn't arrived. He then went back and they told him that his license was revoked because he had an unpaid ticket from 2001--when we last lived in Minnesota. He paid the ticket and the reinstatement fee for the license. Then the waiting game was on again and the license never arrived. So, this afternoon he was pulled over and they told him that the license was "revoked." Clearly there is a huge screw-up at the DMV. Hopefullly he can get it resolved tomorrow.
This crap apparently was a bit like the straw that broke the camel's back, and we had a long talk about the possibility of him moving back. Of course, nothing would make me happier (I can't tell you how much I miss him). But, the reason he left in the first place was that he couldn't find a decent job which was both financially draining, but it also wrecked havoc on his self-esteem. I don't know what we're going to do. . . I'm sure this won't be the last time I mention it.
I hope everyone's having a good evening.
