Tooth Pain
Yesterday was a bright sunny day, contrasting with all the cloudy, foggy weather we have seen since getting here. I got fairly sunburned which taxed my system enough to cause a crisis with one of my weak areas: My teeth. I have found that my dental pain can usually be cleared up with enough organic butter and sea salt. But I am living in a tent, so no refrigerator and thus no butter on hand.
After a miserable night, I woke up somewhat improved but still in crisis. I mentally ran through my options and then went and got a breakfast burrito with potatoes, bacon, cheese, and eggs. The bacon and cheese are both sources of fats I tolerate well and served as a good substitute for butter. On the way back, I walked barefoot through the surf to get some sea salt into me. I didn’t really feel right until after lunch but I was no longer in crisis. I had a surprisingly productive day in spite of how badly it began.
