ideas, old gossip, oddments of all things

things that hurt more than you expect them to:
paper cuts
unrequited flirting
curiosity

things that hurt less than you expect them to:
conking your head on the doorway
walking away
breaking up

things that are right about on target:

the dentist
the word no
saying goodbye

and what brings you here, my pretty?

One response to “a shard of glass, but still surprising”

    Recently, while having a non-anaestheticized molar drilled “a little bit” (as the dentist put it) I suddenly stopped squirming and crying when I mentally compared it to my lumbar pain (which I bear with more courage) and realized it was nowhere near as bad. Saying goodbye also hurts worse, now that you mention it.
