What are you doing right now?

wtwo3 · 09-21-2022, 02:38 PM

This thread is influenced by me being stuck here for the day.

I'm at a tint shop for the day where I've decided to work while I wait for the x7 to be tinted. I COULD take an uber home but that's $50 and 45 minutes each way so I figured I'll just get some work done and shoot the shit with the staff anytime they emerge from the shop.

I’m sitting in my car in my dentist’s parking lot. I have a disease. I’m always early. My mother and my ex husband were late for everything. Drove me batshit crazy.

Just to be clear... is the disease that you're always early... or are you at the dentist due to a disease?

Lol. Sorry if I wasn’t clear. Always being early is my disease. If I’m not there 20 minutes early, I’m late.

I just edited about 100 of 135 images from a project, backed them up and will enjoy a beer, the rest can wait till tomorrow because I'm tired.

That does sound like a lot. I bet your fingers are tired.

Sitting at home waiting for people at work to respond, so I'm browsing this forum instead.

I am like that as well. That is a good way to be. Nobody wants to wait for you. Always be on time, which usually turns out to be several minutes early.

Wife and kids are like that too. TBH, I think I got it from my wife and we both past it on to our kids.

Dino GT · 09-21-2022, 05:04 PM

I've been sitting at home doing nothing most of the day

Took the day off because I have to work Friday.
Made BBQ sausage for lunch and then went for a drive. Saw some teenagers on top of some mailboxes, which reminded me of my younger days

Got steaks marinated to BBQ for dinner, so it's been a good day.

Ahhhh that's making me hungry. I haven't had lunch and at this point it's so late in the day I feel I should just wait for dinner.

I am procrastinating about getting started at work waiting on my car cleanup kid to get back with bagels for everyone while I debate about what I am going to do on our little getaway coming up

Laying in bed not really wanting to get up.

M_Six · 09-22-2022, 10:12 AM

Finishing my second cuppa and then it's off to Home Depot to pick up some paving bricks and other stuff. Got a contractor here today to lay in the bricks. I tried to do it in a very small 3'x3' square area by the garage door and totally booted it, so he's going to redo that as well as a larger area. Upper 50s out there now with a high in the 60s, so it's a perfect day to work outside.

M5Rick · 09-22-2022, 10:22 AM

Relaxing after coming back home with a member of family who passed their Theory Driving Test, the actual road Driving Test will be coming up soon.

Refreshing the MyBMW webpage waiting for my car to move from "At the Port" (since 9/1) to "In Transit.

Oh and attempting to focus on work. Ha.

NYG · 09-22-2022, 03:12 PM

Reviewing wind tunnel data for a tuned mass damper I'm designing... and bimmerposting.
