A few weeks ago, I received an email from a young female student who said that she wouldn't be able to attend classes that week due to a dislocated jaw. Of course, I'm immediately concerned that she has found herself in an abusive domestic situation and hope to see her return to class, because sometimes these students just disappear. Well, she returned this week and she explained how her jaw dislocated.

She yawned.

Yup, she dislocated her jaw by yawning. Her facial surgeon has instructed her to hold her head while yawning to prevent it from happening again.

Am I the only one freaked out by this? Makes me not want to yawn!

I had an odd dream last night. I was talking to my mom in the middle of the night at our old house. I saw a figure out in the backyard and so I went to investigate. Turns out it was just my Aunt Whoopi returning home.

Yes, Whoopi Goldberg.

She explained she was coming in the back way because Diane Rehm was waiting for her out front to harass her. When I looked for myself, Diane Rehm was rifling through our garbage for incriminating materials about poor Aunt Whoopi.

Lisa has bad brain. Lisa shouldn't yawn or sleep.
