Well, lesson learned. There’s a reason the doc told me to limit physical activity and it wasn’t because he thought I was too skinny and needed to curl up with a bag of potato chips on the couch for 7 days to plump up.
In other news, sleeping is still a bit of a challenge. Although mouth breathing is a pastime enjoyed by lower order species and my old high school football team that used to pick on me, it does not lend itself to falling asleep. The funny thing is that I can tell my body REALLY wants to breathe through my new nose. In fact, usually within a few minutes of dosing off I’m awakened by the uncomfortable vibration of air being pulled across the stents still affixed to various parts of my inner face. Unfortunately, this will be the situation until next Tuesday when they’re removed. Until then, I’ll sleep as my face allows and keep the home improvement projects to a minimum.

Dear Ben, I am so sorry you're still suffering! Hope you're better at this point, anyway.
I'll call on Saturday.
Much love,
Mom
