This Camden Summer

After a few years of uncertainty and doubt, I can safely say today that the left eye tears more easily than the right(I hear your mutters of 'what a loser' and feelings of incredulity, I hear them all). But because this is my blog and blogs are loose spaces of whatever, I am going to elaborate. This hasn't come easy. I always thought the tear ducts in my left eye were just more responsive or sensitive whichever comes first. Every time something hurts, my left eye would tear even before my brain registers the pain. But recently, it has come to my attention that mainly anything on the left side of the body hurts at least 3 times more than any part on the right. That's because the heart is tilted toward the left(this is the part where those of you who have a right heart or none at all stop reading any further). The logic is that because the left is closer to the heart, it hurts more than the right. Not much logic but I really don't have an absolute answer. Basically knowing that the closer you are to the heart the more pain you will feel is a satisfying answer. Well, at least now I know that when I fall, I will put my right foot out first.
