Yesterday, my friend and I were discussing health, injuries, etc. It seems as though we are never functioning at full capacity. Whether it's something minor, like a cold, or something serious, like a fracture or tear, we never seem to be 100%. After contemplating this further, I came to the conclusion that most of my friends, if not all, suffer from the same problem.

So I ask you, fellow Escapists! What's your problem today? Do you have one, or several? What was the worst injury you've ever suffered (to clarify, it doesn't necessarily have to be the most painful, it can be the injury that put you out of commission the longest, or the worst sickness/virus you've ever caught, etc.).

I'll get the ball rolling with my current problem. I tore cartilage in my right shoulder playing football at a local park with some friends, and I tore cartilage in my left shoulder overthrowing in baseball. It's not terribly painful, but it affects my ability to lift heavy weights or throw for prolonged periods.

My worst injury was also baseball related; I stretched a ligament in my elbow when I was about fourteen. Again, it wasn't terribly painful, but, as a precaution (they knew I would keep playing if they didn't do this), they put my arm in a cast for like four months.

My back is real messed up, like, bad man, worse than that time I bit myself on the ankle...that's a long story though.

Seriously though, my back is a mess, it's like one massive knot that can't be undone, and I've had it that long that I can't even feel the pain anymore, and when someone tried to massage me, I can't feel it.

You have strange friends. I'm rarely not going at 100%. Haven't taken a sick day or visited a doctor in ages.

So today my problem is a mild case of boredom, quickly solved by going home from school.

Argh, I know what you mean... And the fact that I neurotically worry over anything, no matter how stupid, doesn't help either. *rocks back and forth in corner*

Today? Well I'm nearing the end of the first hour of today, and I've been crying for most of it. I blame Schindler's List. I also have a cold, and I pulled a muscle in my left leg. I'm definitely never functioning at 100% but that's probably because my idea of a good night's sleep is 4 hours and a lot of caffeine.

It's horrible for me. If I don't pass I won't get a placement in an art university.

And I would cry inside in the most soul-shattering way.

I got some serious sunburns on my arms while fishing and applied a quarter-pound of Noxzema to each of them, and they still hurt really bad

EDIT: Oh yeah, and this.

I just had a history exam. I am fearing results.

British history from 1951 - 2007? Not that great...

I just walked into the dining room table and scrunched all the toes on my left foot so owfuckow.

But to be honest, am almost never at 100% and think that it has something to do with being over 35.
