What can you do (or have you done) that people are surprised to find out?

I did something this summer that most people are shocked to find out I did. So I wonder what other people have done that surprised their family and friends? Here's what I did. This past summer, I was in a car accident and killed my poor little Golf. So my husband and I went and bought another one, with a bad motor and trans, and we pulled the good motor out of my bad car and are in the process of putting it in where the bad motor was in the good car. The surprising part is that I have done most of the work because less than 2 weeks before, my husband was hit by a car while riding his bicycle, and had a broken arm (which needed surgery to set). We're still working on it though, we have both engines out and are in the process of putting it back together. It's just hard to work in the garage with a toddler around, and it's too cold to work anyway. Our garage is too small to be able to work with the big door closed. Still surprises the heck out of people when they look at me and I tell them that!
