Searched how to check the oil level on a BMW I wasn't familiar with, and the top result wanted me to "remove any dangling jewelry, scarves, or loose clothing" before... "use the steering wheel controls or the iDrive knob to navigate to the Vehicle Info menu". So I'm going to get my loose clothing stuck in something around the driver's seat? Sounds dangerous. Oh, and this was the oil had pictured. Pretty sure truffle olive oil isn't BMW LL rated.

Just when I thought I was getting ahead on the tomatoes, the plants were all, "TF you are."

...and that was the right call to put them on. Still have no idea why the driveway at this house is so bad for raining fireworks debris.

Didn't think I'd need the car covers on tonight until I started hearing stuff dropping on the roof. 😮‍💨
