I'm not doing exactly that, but here are two ideas.

1) Put the MD files on a USB memory stick and carry it around. Others here 
have reported doing this -- including updating the files using a Mac at 
home and a Windows box at work.

2) Use something which provides an "online disk". I'm sure there are many; 
I use Jungle Disk (http://www.jungledisk.com). JD uses Amazon S3 for 
storage, and S3 only charges for actual usage, so storing one small file is 
very cheap. JD encrypts what it uploads, but keeps a copy in a local cache 
during processing.

Both options require you to remember to close the MD file before going from 
one location to the other, but this applies to your current email scheme also.
