Interesting.
you know what would be a cool shot/series? Is you half-buried in sand, even your mouth half-full, but the sand is smooth... so it looks like the tide came in and left, and you are awake and going after the same thing as here- trying to feel. Gulping life.

Besides, the sand and salt water might help clean out the cavities and sinuses too, if you were hardcore for the series and actually did it (can you imagine?)...lol. That would blow some minds out there on places like MMayhem, etc. Hepe you get better soon!
