Ok, let's try and entertain each other as we are in exactly the same situation! I'm 5dp5dt and my beta is Sept. 29.
Here's my suggestion: we take turn and give each other small "tasks" to do ... These tasks can be anything, from a set of stretching exercises to cleaning your bathroom or telling a joke. Are you in?
Cheers!
