When I told Brian I was blogging about the letter, he asked whether I was just trying to scare my mom. But I imagine my mom only noticed that the letter was addressed to my maiden name. She probably didn't pay any attention to that long German word above the address.
That long German word that looks like it might have "police" stuck right in the middle of it.
Bet she's noticing it now. And maybe her heart is beating a little faster as well. But there's nothing to worry about, Mom. Yes, I received a letter from the police asking me to come down to the station. But I'm sure it's nothing serious. I'm sure it's nothing to worry about.
On a side note, wouldn't it be nice if the police could send out letters to criminals asking them to report to the station and it actually worked. Of course, if said criminals had seen the images of this 5-star prison in Austria, they might be more than happy to report to the police station.
Back to the letter... I actually knew it was coming, I had just forgotten about it. Last week, Brian and I started working on getting our U.S. driver's licenses transferred to Austrian driver's licenses. One of the requirements is a document from a physician that states you are fit to drive. But since I'm diabetic, I'm required to meet with someone at the office that issues driver's license -- which happens to be part of the police bureau. So this letter was just telling me what to do next. If all goes well, maybe I'll have an Austrian driver's license in a few weeks.
See, Mom, I told you there was nothing to worry about.

You're such a trickster! I was going to get really mad if you didn't tell us what the letter was about. I hope all goes well!
Guess I'm slowing down a bit. I didn't notice the Gragg....or the police in the middle of the word, but after you pointed them out it was just a bit of a scare. Why did they send it to Alisha Gragg? Doesn't your US driver's license have Rusher on it? I still occassionally get mail addressed to Alisha Gragg. It gets trashed immediately.
Amber, I considered not telling you what the letter was about, but I didn't want to make Mom too worried!
Mom, My license has Rusher on it, but the person filling out the form was using my passport. The passport has my maiden name on the front page and an amendment with my married name at the back. It's really annoying, but my passport doesn't expire for several more years. I may just go ahead and renew it so I don't have to remember to tell people about the amendment.
