I still have scars on my legs from playing baseball/football/basketball when I was a kid...
I have really bad blood circulation, so like when I go to get blood withdrawn, it becomes an hour ordeal.
I used to get roughed up as a kid while playing, but I never had any marks to show for it. I mean, cuts are another thing, but never a bruise. My sis and brother bruise easily tho. I'm just... different that way. _________________

I know I've been quiet here lately, but I must jump into this thread to say Wynter - that's amazing you've just had your first bruise.
You never bruise when you have blood taken?
I know about cuts...I have quite a few scars on my hands from where my sister repeatedly slashed me with her fingernails when we we young.
Gosh, she was evil. Mind you, I slashed her back (only in self-defence!)
@ Topic - my stupid stomach problem is still bothering me. Ugh, the pain can be bloody awful. And any painkillers that have any effect make me dopey.

I never get a bruise when I get blood taken. They usually start wtih the inner arm, them move to the back of my hands, cause they can never find it. They also have to use infant needles as opposed to the larger adult ones.

What's wrong with the tummy? Mega cramping? Hope you get better soon. _________________

You sound like one of my friends; people have terrible trouble getting blood out of her too. I'm sure she gets bruising, though!

Yeah, some digestive problem, I think. It blooming hurts anyway, whatever it is.

People who don't use correct grammar, and who think they are cool when they puposely write something incorrectly. That reallly irritates me. _________________

It's a new teenage craze that was birthed from constant MSN use. My students wanted to name a section of the yearbook "skool is kool". _________________

Gotta vent a little here: We have 2 special handicapped parking spots right next to the front door, clearly marked "Van Accessible Only" Today they were both occupied by a) a Nissan Altima and b) a 350z. Correct me if I'm wrong, but neither one of those are vans. What pisses me off is we have a person here on crutches that needs one of those spots and he had to park further away because of those 2 inconsiderate assholes!!!
So I went out and put a note on each of their windshields, "What part of VAN ACCESSIBLE ONLY are you too stupid to understand???"

I feel better already
You should trash both cars a la Seinfeld... That would be quite cathartic.

Not quite as bad, but at one place I lived at, somebody once parked completely across the driveway in front of my garage and I had to drive off the kerb to get out. I wrote on his windscreen in thick black marker pen "Don't park here!" (I was very restrained lol)

Also true. I'm sure Keps knows what she should and shouldn't be eating.
Um, can we get off the subject of my fibre intake?
Gaijinmark - grrrr! I get really annoyed when I'm in the car trying to find a parking space, and some person who is clearly not disabled is parked in the disabled area. Those spaces need to be bigger than usual - I can't get the wheelchair next to my seat in a normal space (the next car will be too close).
If it were happening outside my house - as it is with you - I would be even angrier. I'm glad you made it know that you weren't at all happy!
