Every time I take some time off work something bad happens to my body. In december, I booked a week off and had a flu for four days of it.
So I was going to go to Ottawa on Saturday to see my parents and stay until Wednesday. But when the new roommate bailed I had to stay in town to find a new one (now accomplished. in fact, had i known it would happen on Saturday, I could've still gone up there). But I was walking around on Saturday and all of a sudden my foot started to hurt when I put weight on the ball of it. In a few minutes, I was limping. I have no idea how this occurred, although the internet says that its possible that some of my skin is growing wrong and is pressing against a nerve, or that the fleshy pad on the ball of my foot is wearing away. It could be arthiritis but it doesn't feel like a joint thing. So I guess it's discomfort, pain, and the walk in clinic for my days off.

That's a possibility, but one I strongly doubt since many of the hardest abusers I know have either paused to take stock or have all sorts of fun medical benifits and tests and things that tell them they're fine. Sure, as a group, we're statistically more likely to have more scar tissue than anyone else, but we do all right otherwise. I just got my first cold in two years. I think your body has a thresehold for abuse, and when you yourself make every effort to met and exceed that thresehold than your body just works double-time to keep everything else the hell out of the way, since the quota's already been filled. But what do I know, I'm drunk all the damn time....
