I just got a phone call from Morgan. He's safe in Germany right now. Just so's you know. :)

So there I was, on the B line, going to work. My train pulled into Government Center station, my stop. I put away my knitting and got off the train. I headed for the escalator. As I am generally an impatient person, I jogged up the escalator. When I reached the top and stepped off, I felt my left sandal slip off my foot. I went to pick it up, but saw that the toe of it was caught in the gap between escalator and floor. WTF??? I tugged and tugged, but couldn't get it out. I went over to the token booth and announced, "The escalator has eaten my sandal!" The woman there called up an inspector. Before the inspector could arrive, a nice man managed to pull out my sandal. The toe was shredded, but it would at least stay on my foot. When the inspector came, I assured him I wasn't in any way hurt, and flopped off to work.

I think what happened is that the sandal, slightly loose, slipped forward as I was lifting my foot to clear the gap, and it stayed there while my foot went up. Bah. Now I have to go to DSW and get a new pair. I just hope to god there's something decent left there at this point in the season!
