I think I may have mentioned a while back that I had some hefty pain in my jaw/ear, and that it ended up being due to swelling in the tube that connects your ear to your throat, the eustachian tube. Well, it's back. I've been taking Sudafed (actually got my hands on some of the actual Sudafed, not just the store brand stuff), but I can't tell if it's helping.

I found a massage that helps to clear the eustachian tube, and I've been doing that quite a lot. When I found out about it, the pain was so bad that I was actually in tears, unable to do anything at all. I did the massage, felt something almost akin to something moving in my head, and the pain, for the most part, subsided. At this point, though, I can't tell if the pain I have in that area is still from the swelling in my head or from massaging too much.

On top of that, I have a shattered wisdom tooth on the same side. I caught a corner of my shattered tooth while I was flossing the other night, felt that same moving sensation, and immediately felt like a bomb had gone off in my head.

At this point, I don't know if the pain is from my ear, massaging that area too much, or from my tooth. Either way, it hurts like hell.

Because of this, I haven't been able to focus on drawing anything at all, much as I've wanted to.

So, to my commissioners, I'm sorry I haven't been able to get your art to you as soon as I usually would have. I want to get your art to you as badly as you do, if not more, and I hate having taken this long to do so. Hopefully this goes away soon so I can get your pictures done and sent off to you as soon as possible.
