Today, having been given the OK to return to work after 4 unpaid weeks off following an ACL injury, providing I use crutches, my boss is refusing to let me use them as she thinks they are a "health and safety issue". It's not like I need the money anyway. FML

Did you apply for temporary disability? If you're in the US, you should have. It doesn't pay your full wages (about 70%), but it would certainly have helped.

Today, I woke up to a bloody nose. Instead of rushing to the bathroom, I creatively dripped the blood over a knife for photography class because the assignment was to show emotion. So many of the students and faculty were disturbed that I'm now forced to talk to the school psychologist. FML

Today, I had severe constipation. I went to get some more laxatives when I felt something fall onto the top of my head. I reached up to see what it was and it turned out to be quite a large spider. Guess who isn't constipated anymore. FML
