SPT: fill in the blanks

The other day I looked in my wallet and noticed my driver's license that still has my maiden name, wondering why in the world I haven't taken care of that during the past five (and a half!) years of married life.  And further wondering why I lazily registered to vote in that same name rather than bothering to change my driver's license (which I'm sure takes all of 4.7 minutes online).

So today Amy Hendrix voted.  And had to do a confused double take before passing up the L-Z line in favor of A-K.   And had to endure (once again!) the ridiculous question of whether or not she's related to Jimi Hendrix. 

 
Jimi                                                                     Amy

Absolutely.

Do people really ask you that?

[Barb]

You are throwing some good rock star attitude in that self portrait! Can you play the national anthem on the guitar?

[Tilane]

The resemblance is amazing! That is too hilarious that people actually ask you that!

[Melissa Masitis]

I am laughing out loud and Erik is giving me funny looks. That is great! I think you should keep the Hendrix, then if you get a ticket or commit a federal crime, your name is clear.

[Marie]

Wow! You guys have such a strong family resemblance! You must all be so proud of your cousin Jim.

[Shanon]

That is too funny. You look beautiful in that picture!!

[deb]

Great picture- I can totally see the resemblance! good for you for voting!

[Tiffany]

What a cute photo of you!

Do you know how lucky you are to get an "I Voted" sticker? I miss not getting one here in Texas. I thought everyone always got one! (Maybe I'll have to make my own voting sticker to wear on election days!)

[lelly]

you are a rockstar, for sure! i let little details [like changing my legal name, a-hem] go astray for way too long. we moved right after we got married, so i would have still had to get a new license. yet, i remember waiting about 14 months before i actually changed it.

and don't even ask when i got around to updating my social security card...

[Jill]

Now that's funny! I find it totally embarrassing that anyone would joke with you about being related to Jimmy Hendrix, that's not even funny.

oh a super tuesday voter! good for you!!

darling photos (your 2 photos. j.hendrix? not so much)

[Mandi]

I don't know how many times I've been asked that dumb question in my life! Even on my mission, I had someone who called me Hermana Jimi -- ha! ha! very clever. That is so Amy to me though that you still have your DL under Hendrix, but hey, my license still has the address for my apartment on University but at least my name is changed.

[April]

Ha! I am cracking up. I hope you said the "Absolutely." with an absolutely straight face.

I voted early...but saved my sticker to wear around yesterday. I love that they send you a sticker with your early voter ballot...as if that's the only reason you went and voted. I really, really want a sticker!

I like that you have a double identity. And I love your haircut...makes me desperate to cut mine...but I just cut myself some "awesome" bangs, so I guess that "do" will have to wait.

Oh my goodness I have always thought there was a resemblance but never knew your maiden name! now it is all coming together for me.
5 years and still haven't changed your drivers license??

[Katie]

I got my license changed, but NONE of my other items: credit cards, bank cards, etc. It's a problem when I buy something with a Nash visa, get asked for an ID, and show an Atkinson license. "It's me, I swear!"

Also, I go by my maiden name at work, so we just discovered that my plane ticket to Dallas booked under Nash will not match my ID either. Airport security may take issue with that.

I can't believe you still have that. Hilarious. I came across my "old" AZ drivers license it was a bit smeared due to weather, but I still have it.

People seriously ask you about Jimi? That is too funny. Ummm totally no resemblance.

[Kelly]

Well, congratulations Amy Scott. Now when are you changing your email? :) That cracks me up.

You are looking fierce in that photo.

And, as for voting stickers. First, we are not part of the Super Tuesday mayhem, but this year we may actually have a say (well, those of us who still have a choice in the matter). Amazing. But, Oregon is a mail-in ballot state. There are NO polling places. Just your mailbox. It's very anti-climatic.
