"I feel as if time has been frozen on my side while yours has moved on ahead."

Went to do something that I'd never bothered to attempt in my life today: build a model. A gundum one at that. Quite impossible for a hopeless noob like me without a tutor but we managed. Thank you for being so patient. Really man ;x finished up the body and halfway through the wings. I'm happy. I feel so accomplished :)

I'm tired. And my jaw hurts. Which in turn makes my left ear hurt. Which in turn makes it painful to swallow. A sprained jaw isn't exactly a walk in the park y'know. It's not like you guys think. I'd rather have a sprained ankle. At least I can rest it after a long walk. But a sprained jaw, it can never rest. You talk, you eat, you swallow, you sing, you yawn, you sneeze, and even turning your head one way or the other would cause it to pull a muscle along your neck that would make the pain shoot up into your ear again. It even hurts when you jump up and down. As long as it moves, it hurts.

I'm not asking for pity. Neither am I self-pitying. I'm just stating stuff that most people do not experience. For example, a sprained jaw.

"Oh? So what happened?"
"What else," I took a sip from my martini, "It broke."
