You are not alone, Stewie <hugs>
This morning, as I'm driving to work, a truck in front of me dropped a bag of something...chalk, cement powder, or something....a dry, white, powdery mess.
There was nowhere for me to go....except through this massive cloud of white crap.

My beautifully washed and shiny CR MCSC is now coated in a lovely white powder. She looks as if I rolled her in flour.
I spent the remainder of my commute contemplating how I could wiggle out of an 8:30AM meeting with an Exec VP in order to go home and wash/wax her. Resisting all temptation, I came into the office and will attend the meeting - but I'll be taking an extended lunch to go and return her to her previously pristine condition.
The OCDer in me is going mad :impatient tick tock, tick tock, tick tock.....I can't stand it. She's out there, covered in "something", and looking very non-MINI-esque in her filth.
I've been in the office for 20 minutes, and 2 employees have approached me already with the..."WHAT happened to your car" comments.
I feel like snapping their little heads off with a smartass comment..."It's a new look I'm going for, what do you think?"
