Brief hiatus

As usual, this post is apologizing for my lack of content lately. I have a good excuse this time, though! I had a stone in one of my salivary glands and the gland had become severely impacted, which was putting pressure on the nerve that runs through all the muscles in my jaw and tongue on that side of my face. In short, I basically felt like I had severely impacted wisdom teeth, and every tooth on that side of my face hurt. I also couldn't open my mouth more than enough to fit a spoon in there without severe pain.

So I had the gland taken out, and I've been recovering for the past week or so. I wanted to do a bunch of writing while I was home from work, but as it turns out, hydrocodone and writing don't mix.
