Rakkys back pain reminds me
I occasionally suffer some sort of infection in my ear. The first time I had it, a gland somewhere near the top of my jaw swelled to the point where I could barely talk and was unable to chew anything firmer than soup. It felt like I had a tennis ball wedged in my shell-like.

I was popping as much paracetamol and ibuprofen as is allowed (and a couple more for luck) but still required a more effective pain killer, so a trip to the doctors had me on a heavy dose of codeine as well as the off-the-shelf stuff. being unable to do much, i decided a nice bath and a couple of spliffs would boost the recovery of my morale.

While running the bath, as I'm sure many do, I sat upon the throne for a small movement and a swift chapter of Stephen King. Feeling a little dizzy, I thought nothing of it. I noticed the bath was nearing the optimum fill level so I stretched over to turn off the tap.

THUD!

The painkillers and THC combo had more of an effect than I had realised and I hit the floor like a sack of shit. Thankfully no shit smearery occured, so the only lasting effects were a broken pedal bin and a cracked rib.

Length? Just out of arms reach, I've leant over to do it hundreds of times.
