  • I have several joint damaging injuries. I’ve broken my ankle, torn the cartilage in my knee, and dislocated my shoulder fourteen times - and not only are those only the joint injuries, but only those that have required surgery.

    Last year, during a change of seasons, I was visiting a local diner for a takeout order and asked if they minded if I sat down to wait for my order, explaining that I was a damaged individual. They, of course, acquiesced, but then the owner of the venue asked if I noticed more pain during inclement weather.

    That was the first time over about thirty years of owies that I realized my pain might be correlated with barometric pressure.
