What do you mean, swap? Why can't I have both?

The clutch has gone on my car.  Well one of my cars.  Which means now I only have a choice of one car to drive in the morning.  The lack of variety may become tiresome.

Clearly you need to buy another car.

  My paper towels are not colorfast, and sometimes leave traces of dye on surfaces for me to clean up.  :'(

My local shop had ran out of unsweetened soya milk so I had to get the sweetened kind.  It's difficult to operate under these circumstances.

  You could buy more rack space, right?  But maybe then you'd have too much.  :'(
