    I’ve broken just about every bone in each arm and leg. I’ve seen my own blood more times than I can remember and my own bones peaking out my skin twice. Cuts, bruises and minor burns are generally ignored. One day my clumsiness will kill me, because I refuse to learn. At least I will go out proud.

    But a cold will fuck me up every single time. Sometimes for days. And yes, I will whine all the time nonstop.

        When you’re not trying to move the affected bone, it’s easy to forget about a break. With a cold you’re reminded with every breath, every swallow, and every time it makes you sneeze or throw a coughing fit.

        Yep, not a fan!
