Ouch
Today coming in to work I saw a woman whose entire face was bruised. The whole thing. How would something like that even happen I wonder? At first I thought maybe she had been abused or something, but then thinking about it, it seems like abuse bruises would be a little more site specific probably. Maybe she just fell flat on her face or ran face first into a wall or something. I was totally curious, but didn’t really feel like I could ask a stranger how they got their massive facial bruising.
Also, yesterday during soccer I got elbowed hard in the left bicep and my arm went dead for about 10 seconds. It was a strange feeling. I couldn’t really move it at all, which was a little startling. I have no bruising yet, but my arm is pretty damn sore today and I’m just waiting for the bruise to start showing.
One of my co-workers is currently on crutches because his Achilles tendon tore during a squash game. Ouch! Injuries are everywhere today. Although when you think about it, it’s amazing that the body holds up as well as it does, given the abuse it receives.
