We had more flash flooding yesterday due to heavy rains. I've lost count of how many flash flood warnings we've received this summer. It certainly is the wettest year I can remember. Last night the river had overflowed and covered the MUP in some of the lower areas, so I expected to have to take an alternate route to work. This morning the river had receded enough that the MUP was completely passable, although a little muddy in spots.
Got to the office and proceeded to change into my work clothes when I realized I'd packed two pairs of underpants but no socks. So mentally I'm still not ready to be back from vacation. I'm now going "foot commando."
Why not just wear your cycling socks? If they're too stincky, then try washing them with soap in the bathroom sink and wring them dry. That's what I do with my skull cap since that's the most sweaty and stinky thing on my body. My feet are never as stincky as my armpits. So I guess that's my "luck."
