Vehicles are useful!

` After purchasing a new storage compartment and some more equipment for my lab, I had a chance to ponder just how tricky it is to function with the only mode of transportation I have....

` Mad Scientist Feet, tried and true.

` ...Thank goodness for my decent arches.

` Though it is my favorite way to get around, they are not always adequate. I actually do own a vehicle, though it is not physically in my possession for the time being.
` I am trying to decide whether or not to 'steal' it from the person whom I am lending it to ...though I'm not sure I like the idea of stirring up hostility at the moment.
` Thankfully, the weather has been fairly decent lately, unlike the conditions at the beginning of the month:


` It was the kind of wind that reminded me just how much I need to cut my hair - as well as precisely how sharp palm tree fronds can be.
` As my internet time is running out, I need to say goodbye for now. Rest assured I shall resume my regular, exuberant blogging as soon as MAL can be safely reconstructed (considering the unclean nature of my resident electricity) and fitted with my own brand of internet service.

Yipes! You got a little problem with your left "this little piggy had none" toe there?

` Yes, both that one and my "this little piggy ran wee-wee-wee all the way home" toe.

` The injury was initiated by one of my worst adversaries, the Clean Sock. Very slippery, those things.
` Because the podiatrists/orthopedic surgeons would do nothing, I continued to manipulate my foot until it became even more grotesque.

` As a consequence, it is actually much easier to walk, though wearing shoes is a bit tricky.
