Amusements

1. Perhaps my favorite amusement from my current situation is that I bike, but use a cane. I walk with a cane to the bike, then I get on the bike, sometimes using the cane for an extra balance support. I bike with the cane on my handlebars, because it really doesn't fit anywhere. I arrive at my destination and carefully dismount and lock the bike, etc. And then walk away with a cane. I haven't seen anyone staring or doing a double-take ... but I think it's pretty funny.

2. So I was picked up this evening to go over to my boss's house for some game playing. The woman who picked me up has health problems and walks with a cane. My boss's partner had a stroke a few months ago and is recovering and currently walks with a cane. I currently walk with a cane. I found it amusing that my boss was the only one of the four of us that didn't use a cane.
