The weekend is quite the welcome development here. My tooth extraction is fading in the rear-view mirror, but I'm still sort of hovering between a sore jaw when the pain-killers wear off and a knotted stomach when they are in full effect, so I'm looking forward to escaping from it all with a good nap or two. I know... an ambitious plan, but I think with enough grit and determination, I can pull it off.
