It occurred to me today as I downed a handful of Ibuprofin that my most debilitating injuries have been really mundane. I've fallen off a 40-foot tower, been drug down the street by a truck, I've been whacked upside the head with a baseball and a baseball bat, kicked in the ribs, stabbed in the face, and none of it has slowed me down like sleeping on my shoulder wrong. I can't turn my head to the right more than a few degrees, right now, without the entire right half of my back feeling like it's trying to rip itself off the rest of my torso. Road rash so deep it leaves permanent nerve damage? No problem, I'm up and ready for some paintball a few days later. Roll over in bed just so? Paralyzed for life.
