Day 9: January 19

Yesterday, my lip felt a little tingly so I decided to take a break for the one day. But when I woke up this morning, my lip had a bump! I think I'm developing a cold sore, and not wanting to poison my reed I am forced to take a break until it goes away. However, even though I won't be playing, I will continue to study about the instrument and I'll try to continue posting. ...Then I'll sterilize my reed.
