If we're connected on other social media, you will know that I was admitted to the emergency room on Friday for emergency oral surgery -- a dental infection which blew up and for which antibiotics were ineffective.
They operated on Saturday. Since no scheduled surgeries take place on weekends, it's a great time to be on a surgical aftercare ward -- very quiet. I landed a single room -- no window, which normally I'm almost phobic about, but in this case helped me to sleep so, so very much. Marty came by on Sunday with a change of book and my laptop, as I needed to contact my students on Canvas to let them know classes are cancelled for a few days and online for the rest of the week.
I should be going home mid-day today. One side of my face looks normal, the other half looks kind of Winston Churchill-ish, although already a bit less so than yesterday. Just hope I'm able to travel to Crime Bake two weekends from now -- it's meant to be my first mystery conference and I'm also meant to be up to charming agents and editors. Hopefully if I'm not up to it, they'll let me roll things over 'til next year.
Anyhow.
