I've got a bruise three inches above the right nipple from a bite, and one towards the front of the left armpit from a bill. I'm walking with a limp after a rather nasty jab to the outside of my left hip joint, and there are a few other scratches and jabs here and there.

Medieval practise makes me feel alive, and I think the reason it does is it taps primal impulses (responses to pain and violence) in ways that are far more intense than the everyday. Normal life pain is a bit of a headache, or those rather nasty arthritis twinges - so, irritating, chronic, but not exciting. Fighting pains are far more intense, and hence exciting.
Bruises and so forth are also good because you know that one day they will be gone. There's an optimistic outlook, whereas everyday pain will probably just increase as you get older.

On an unrelated issue, Guns n Roses are now back in my CD collection, and have just helped me tidy my room. To the uninitiated the new tidy state might look quite similar to the previous untidy state, but everything is arranged in a more logical manner. Really.
