Another embarrasing adulting moment from me today ✌🏼

I had to update my home address. I thought the only place which does this is far away from where I lived.

.

So I postponed doing it for 1.5 YEARS 😂
.
Anyway, today I decided, no more postponing this, I’ll get it done today. I went there only for them to tell me I could’ve done it around the corner from where I lived 😑
.
I ended up sorting it out today. Here’s how the conversation went about:
.
.
Police officer: “You were meant to do this 7 days within your move. It’s been over a year.”
.
Me: “I know.”
.
Her: “What was the reason you didn’t?”
.
Me: “My dad died. I went through a breakup. I got ill.”
.
Her: (Bit of a pause) “Ok I’ll write that down.”
.
Me: “Is there a fine?”
.
Her: “No, but I need to write the reason to tell you off.”
.
Me: “Is this you telling me off?”
.
Her: “Yeah.”
.
We both smiled.
.
.
Go do that boring paperwork or errand you’ve being putting off. It’s freeing 🎉
.
I did another one today, I feel like a proud adult 🙌🏼
.
I love you 💛
