Yup! Went to the really BORING and DEPRESSING office of the State Comptroller right after the county court house and got my resell permit.

You'd think a state like Texas could afford some new furniture huh? I mean didn't Ca-Ca Orange upholstery go out in like what.... 1972???

A contract for a portrait session? I've never done one of those. They pay, I shoot. They pay, I order prints. I deliver, they pay the balance.

I'm always glad when I see administrations not wasting taxpayer money. They don't have to have modern or stylish furniture in order to handle my issues.

@Chris
Congrats!
