Hi...sorry it's been a while since I've written, but here I am...well, most of me, anyway. Three mornings ago, I had oral surgery. Nothing life threatening, obviously, but moderately traumatic to me personally. Those who know me know I talk for a living, so any surgery in that general area could certainly damage a rather lukewarm career in broadcasting. As it stands now, three days later, I cannot speak any "s" sounds clearly and my chin is still numb. That may last quite a while, I've been told, as I had some nerve damage in my jaw. I've also noticed some swelling in my face, making me look like Tim Allen in "The Santa Clause". It is also disappearing, but for those of you who love to look at train wrecks, I will be posting the pictures of "Swolley Todd" sometime in the next few days. So, I've lived the past few days on lots of liquids, soup, ice cream and medications...the meds are the most solid thing I've had so far...and I'm soooooooooooo ready for a big steak dinner...or fish...or White Castle, I don't care, as long as I could sink my teeth into it...which won't happen until I get teeth. I'll keep you posted.
