My ear has been hurting me for the last few days. I've been meaning to mention it, except I keep trying to find something witty to say about constant pain. I've got five messages in my drafts folder that begin with "ow! ow! ow!" and go downhill from there.
The good news is that my eardrum isn't ruptured. The bad news is that my ear canal is infected, which the doctor says hurts even worse. I'm inclined to believe her. Like many problems, it will pass. In the meantime, I'm feeling pain in places that I didn't know could feel pain, avoiding solid food, and sleeping a lot. Isabel has inked the comics, but spent the last few days taking care of me instead of coloring them. I appreciate that. I know that a lot is happening in all of our comics right now and appreciate your patience.
