Useless Sympathy = Platitudes

So right now I'm feeling pretty useless. My leg hurts from limping around all day at school, so I can barely walk still. And then now I'm feeling really sick. I have a headache, I'm super tired, I have a runny nose, I'm starting to get a temperature, and all of that fun stuff...joyeous.


On the upside: IT'S RAINING! I love the rain :) No matter how hard it rains, I always enjoy rain. There could be a thunderstorm and lightening outside and I would still love it (I personally think that thunderstorms are awesome XD).

Hmm, what else is going on in my life? Oh yeah! So because of what happened yesterday, I was forced to limp around all day. The guys and girls had different reactions to this. The sympathy from the girls was nice...at first that is. Who would have thought that sympathy could piss me off so much? So this is how ALL of the conversations with the girls went:

Me: *limp limp*
Girl: OMG! Are you okay? What's wrong with your ankle?
Me: It's my heel, and I'm fine.
Girl: Are you sure?
Me: Yes. I'll be fine in about 2 days.
Girl: How did you hurt it anyway?
Me: I almost got hit by a car.
Girl: OMG! Really? What happened?!
Me: *SIGH* (and then i go on explaining to them what happened)

And this happened multiple times in each class period.
For comparison purposes, this is the typical conversation with a guy:

Me: *limp limp*
Guy: Dude, are you okay?
Me: Ya I'm fine. My heel just hurts.
Guy: What did you do? Trip and fall?
Me: No. I almost got hit by a car yesterday.
Guy: Haha! Nice! (and then they usually imitate my funny walking and/or threaten to push me down or give me a flat tire)

So I actually didn't mind that the guys were making fun of me. I actually preferred it over the girls' platitudes (OMG! vocab word! hehe) because having to explain that story a billion times got fricken annoying. So if you see me limping still, don't even dare to ask me what happened, because I am NOT explaining it again.
