Jet Lag

I recently returned from an transatlantic trip. Well, not exactly recently... I have been back for a week already. One might think, that after a week's time, that whole whacked out bio-clock thing would get with the new-old program. When the waking hours are filled with stifled yawns and sleep peppered with same—no fun, no fun at all.

But on a more medically intriguing note: I have discovered a new kind of cramp! There is apparently some muscle that is located just back under the chin, and when that baby starts to cramp up during a yawn, better hang on tight for one painful ride. I would rather be stabbed through the knee with a pair of rusty garden shears then another lower mandibular yawn cramp.

I blame KLM and there Oompa Loompa designed Boeing 777.
