I can really enjoy packing slowly in the morning, especially if the sun is beginning to warm me. It's the opposite of my work as a live-sound engineer where fast, effective, setting up and tearing down of gear is what we do.
If it's cold or raining, I get into "work-mode". Guess that puts me in the "compulsive perfectionist" and "slob" camps!
This is a great post. If we're on tour trying to set land speed records, on the road or in camp, we might be out there doing the wrong things for the wrong reasons.
