sorry for the bad quality, my phone is bad up close

I hit my pinky finger real bad while hammering a nail when I was a kid, it broke off some of the skin but when it grew back it kinda has a divit in it. Doesn’t hurt or cause issues in any way but it’s just kinda a interesting part about my body that’s unique and I probably wouldn’t fix if given the chance.

I’ve come to love these little inconstancies that shows that a body has been used for fun and living, scars with a story are really sweet.

    Due to a knee surgery many years ago, I have one leg slightly longer than the other & have slightly off kilter walk. A completely unlikely scenario in which I’m stranded in the desert and must walk for help. I fear I may trek for what seems an eternity only to find myself coming full circle. Again most likely will not occur. But if so, I am prepared to account for leg length deficit.

      I heard everyone does this as one leg is the main leg and thus stronger. Lefties turn to the right, righties to the left or so. So your knee would either even you out or shrink the circle.

      This can result in issues with your vertebrae. At least it did for me. If you experience lumbar pain or weird lower body tingling, act sooner, not later.
