What's up with that?

Steve and I are at opposite ends of the height standards. I'm 5'2 and he's 6'3. It makes many things in our lives more challenging. Like finding a couch we can both agree on. Deciding the height of mirrors and cabinets in our home. And driving each others vehicles.

Any time one of us borrows the others vehicle, we have to adjust the seat, the height of the seat belt connector, and all the mirrors. While making these adjustments is necessary to drive, unmaking them is not.

Since we both do the same thing, it is just something we've learned to live with.

But . . .

Twice in the last few weeks, I've gone out to get into my car and all the above had been adjusted. The weird thing is that ALL Steve did was move it from the driveway to beside the driveway so he could get the trailer out. I've moved his vehicle many times in the same way and never had to adjust more than the seat. Honestly, did he put on the seat belt to back out of the driveway and back in? Did he use all the mirrors? Both sides and rear view for the 15 feet in reverse and 15 feet forward?

A friend of ours moved my car a few days ago and while he moved the seat back, he didn't change anything else.

It's not that it drives me crazy, or that I'm pissed about it. I just don't understand the reasoning.

The only thing I can figure is that it's just a natural reflex; get in Misty's car and change everything. I quess I'm lucky I don't have a radio or he'd be messing with my pre-set stations. :)
