I'm an hour early for the bus and trying to decide on what to eat so I can past the 2 hours until I get to the eating point. Can't decide what to eat. Too anxious. Dumplings, I'll eat dumplings. Something about using chopsticks I really enjoy.

Bus leaves in 30 minutes, the stop is 5 minutes walk away. I have my dumplings. Still so anxious. I arrive at the bus stop and eat my dumplings. Its now 15 minutes til the bus leaves, I'm exactly on time.

Finally some relief when I'm sitting in the bus checked in and ready to go.

I'm going on holiday to ride mountain bikes for 5 days. I should be excited.

Anyone else gets this?

Ugh, yeah, I got really good at being places on time, down to half a minute anywhere in my city, so I figure out how long it'll take me to get there, set an alarm and forget all about it, do a task task that can be dropped, and when the alarm goes the race is on.

The fact that you have put in the effort to calculate down to 30 seconds how long travel time takes is so relatable it's hilarious. One time I calculated to the dollar my entire monthly budget. The alarm there is also on point. Can do the impossible but needs a reminder or it's all out the window.
