144 minutes

45 minutes - time spent waiting for C68 to be called (started at C52) so that we could show his birth certificate, social security card and my driver's license and get his picture taken

4 - number of times I said, "CHEEEEESE," as his picture was taken, trying to get him to smile (unsuccessful, btw...it looks like a mug shot)

10 minutes - time spent waiting to take the test

6 minutes - time to take test (one wrong--no brights in fog, honey)

15 minutes - time spent waiting to hand over 50 bucks

5 minutes - time spent waiting to have it in hand

60 seconds - time spent admiring it before realizing my son was labeled "female"

3 minutes - time spent waiting for a new one

2 - number of times a police officer/employee asked how long it takes him to get his hair like that and what he uses.

My baby boy has his learner's permit.
