You may know that I have a habit of cutting corners really close. I mean this, literally, not figuratively. I take a corner with about a fifth of a millimetre between myself and the wall. I'm not in a hurry, I just seem to think that it will save time or energy or who knows what, if I skim past walls.
This can be an issue.
When Brad and I got engaged, I was constantly scraping my ring on the walls in our house. I love my ring, it's perfect, but it's not a rock that should get in your way. The same thing happens when I get a new watch.
It also leads to injuries. This morning, I sacrificed my pinkie toe to my addiction.
I think I may have broken it.
You may notice my middle toe is oddly S shaped.... This is from a previous injury. I call it my S toe. Apparently, I prefer to corner too tightly to the right, because my left foot looks much more normal than my right.
Perhaps, this doesn't completely preclude me from driving a chuckwagon... They always turn to the left once they hit the track, but I may have issues with the barrels..... I won't shelve this dream just yet, I guess.
Can't wait to see what my pinkie will end up like, so far, it's swollen and purple. Perhaps, it will be an Easter decoration. I will call it my Easter egg toe.
