Dental Aventures: a further update

[taylweaver]

Still eating mush - but also pasta.

Also discovering that really, talking nonstop all day, often very stridently, is not so good for resting one's jaw. Yeah, teaching is bad for speedy recovery on this one. Oh well.

Also discovered that my cheek, while less swollen, is now yellow. Yeah. Huge bruise. Not too surprising, but definitely a bit weird.

Also tired. Between the eating of the mush and the healing thing, I guess that makes a lot of sense.

And did I mention that my cheek is yellow?

Maybe you could try to work on using your "head voice". That tends to be less straining than using one's "chest voice" (i.e., diaphragm voice).

Unfortunately, chest voice is the better one for classroom management.

True.
