How tough are you? (Page 5)

Me, I am not tough at all. In fact, my mom used to call me "tofu girl" cus' I am whiny when I am hurt. I get these mysterious blotches of bruises on my arms and legs because I bruise easily. However, I have no problems with needles.

I give myself  weekly allergy shots.  Does that make me tough??

that just makes you crazy

I've had some pretty bad bike spills where I got back up and kept going. The worst was about 2 years ago coming down the backside of a huge hill in the upper 2/3 of the pack. Two guys in front of me click wheels and go down. The entire middle of the pack ends up laying down and eating asphalt. We were also doing near 55 mph. The entire right side of my leg was one big road rash and my tights on that side were shredded. I was towards the front of the accident (why I hit pavement and not oter bikes), so I took the oppertunity to hop back up and distnace myself from the others getting untangled. Placed half way decently in that race too.

The other one was back in HS when I played rugby. I went down and the guy that tackeled me proceded to step down hard on my right hand. One cleat perferated the webbing by my thumb (all the way through) and another punctured the center of my palm. You want to talk about wounds that refuse to heal. It was kind of funny tho as I managed to convince a few people in school the next day that I was stigmatic.

Depends...do you consider heroin users tough? Those guys inject themselves all the time.
