doing all the shopping for the week,
stopping at the post office,
getting gas in the truck,
saying hello to all the people you see in town
taking time out for lunch (maybe in a banana leaf!)
checking the bank to see if your paycheck arrived yet
changing a flat tire
getting a flat tire fixed immediately (never know when you will need it again!)
double checking everything because you're NOT coming back if you forgot anything!
