AFAIK Andrea drinks very moderately. I don't think that is it.

Is she a sleepwalker?

Nope.

You seem to know Andrea very well. ;-)

Worked together for 15 years. Yeah, I know her well, but not unlawful,
carnally well.

What is the very, very bad and small possibility thing?

Check your e-mail, Keith.

This happens to me every now and then. I can bump into things pretty
hard sometimes and not even notice it 🙂 At times it has been hard
enough to cause me to bleed, but I don't recall it ever happening. The
more I lift the less I tend to notice. I hate standing still, so I
tend to move around a lot.

Naturally I told her to go see a doctor, but I did say I would post here

I get bruises (oy, some of the places I get bruises) that I don't know about
until they show up. I had a woman at the gym ask me discretely about
domestic violence. I had to laugh and say, No, I'm just a soccer player,
but thanks for your concern.

That and I walk into tables and things like that - arms on the chairs at a
movie theatre are a major killer! What diabolical furniture designer
thought up arms that stick out farther (further?) than the chairs?

Hope she heeded the blood test advice, as I have nothing serious to
contribute.

No, that would not be domestic abuse.

That would be SOCCER ABUSE!!

Get it right.

Reminds me of my goat problem as a kid. I had bruises and chunks of my hair
missing. My teachers were convinced that I was being beaten by my parents.
It was a young billy goat, known as a kid. (Yep, that's right, that is where
the term kid comes from.) They sent a teacher home with me to "disprove" my
explanation.

The billy goat immediately thought I brought someone new to play with. And
chased her down and repeatedly butted her while she was on the ground.
Which did not go over very well.

But they no longer considered my family abusers or me a victim.

They just thought we were crazy.

I get bruising from a certain sex position that I absolutely do not ever
notice getting. I decline to explain if anyone notices them. (They're
symmetrical.)

I got asked this last fall when I had two joints out of commission. I
told her I was just an aging athlete.

That doesn't exactly narrow it down.

It must not be a very remarkable position if you absolutely do not ever
notice getting it.

I notice that I'm bruised the next day. I never recall the injury in
which I obtain the bruise. However I know what behavior will result in
those bruises, even if I'm not quite clear on how or exactly when the
bruising occurs.

Luckily I'm not scared of bruising.

But my point is that sometimes bruising happens just in the normal
course of using a body, and furthermore that the co-worker might not be
inclined to give Hobbes a full and clear explanation of what exactly she
was up to that resulted in bruises.

Haven't you learned the proper protocol yet Delenn??

You have to have a fellow MFW member video you during these bruising
sessions. Post the MPEG's to MFW.

We will then evaluate your form and make suggesstions to correct your form
so that you can avoid bruising.

And my point was that you ought to have rephrased the sentence. Because
it was unbearably awkward and didn't say what you intended it to say.
At all.

I couldn't care less about your bruises. Put some arnica on them and
shut up about them already.

Ever take Syrup of Ipecac? I think you've forgotten just how F-ugly I
am. Ain't no one want to see me naked.

But I'll post some more (clothed) jpegs in a few weeks. This whole
endurance-weenie kick I'm on hasn't been bad for my body.

I'm going to die rather sooner than I'd like. I tried to protect my
neighbours from crime, and became the victim of it. Complications in
hospital following this resulted in a serious illness. I now need a bone
marrow transplant. Many people around the world are waiting for a marrow
transplant, too. Please volunteer to be a marrow donor:

I am curious why some people bruise easily and some do not. For some
reason, I do not bruise easily, whereas my wife does. I can even hit
myself fairly hard with a fist, and would not get a bruise. Usually,
if I get a bruise from some sort of accident, it would be such that my
skin is also injured (scratching, bleeding etc). My wife, to the
contrary, gets bruises from the slightest bumps.

IME, the differences you describe are fairly common when one person
has a penis, and the other a vagina.
