Back the first time I moved to California (1998), I ended up back in Chicago for Capricon and to supervise the packing of my apartment prior to its contents being moved.

While there, I picked up a couple of things at the Target near where I'd lived prior to the move. I wanted to write a check. But all I had for ID was my California, temporary, paper drivers license (with no photo) and my passport which I'd used to board the plane. I tried to give the clerk the passport, but she could not find any option for a passport on the cash register. Finally I gave her my photo-less drivers license, which she could happily accept - it had a California drivers license number.

(Entirely unrelated, but since then I've learned that both Illinois and California will issue you the same license number if you leave the state and move back. So, while I've changed my official residency 4 times - New Mexico to Illinois, Illinois to California, California to Illinois, and Illinois to California for a second time - I've only had 3 different number. With not too much thinking, I could probably say them, but I won't on a public forum)
