I have the freaking loudest, most innapropriately-timed hiccups in the universe. It sounds like someone stuck a frog infront of a microphone hooked up to a dozen loudspeakers, or something equally ridiculous.

I am not even kidding when I tell you that I hiccuped my way through almost an entire movie. At a theater.

I had considered for a while sitting on the floor in front of my seat so no one would see me... the movie theater floor. That's how bad it was.

And my friends! Aaagh. They tried that "Have you ever seen a white horse?" thing (where did that come from, anyway? Never works.), but after a while just gave up and laughed. They now only refer to me as Kermit. As in, Kermit the Frog. *sigh* I need new friends :p

I get the hiccups often (sidenote - I wonder why they are called 'the hiccups' instead of just 'hiccups'??).  I often eat too fast because I wait until I'm starving to do so, thusly resulting in hiccups.

It drove my ex-boyfriend cah-hah-hah-razy (to be read in a Dr. Cox-y kinda voice.)  It drove him bonkers.  It was like I had been sent from hell itself to torture him with hiccups.  Alas, this was not the case.

I never understood why it upset him so.  But now I'm thinking it was his body's way of saying to his un-listening mind: 'you shouldn't be with this woman.'  Much like my body tried to tell me, and I so ignored it.

Okay, so it seems like I came down with a cold and a bit of a fever.  No big deal, I can handle that.  However, this little package of sick came with an added bonus: the most violent, painful hiccups I've ever experienced in my life.  I truly wanted someone to rip my esophagus out simply for relief.  I was planning on doing DIY gastro-intestinal surgery to replace my diaphragm with a plastic serving tray.  Anything to make my body stop spasming.

It was funny at first, with the loud hiccupping noises I was making during class and the like... but then came the jack hammering pain.  I couldn't get the damn things to stop.  I drank water, I held my breath, I breathed into a paper bag, I had my friend Phil try to "take" my hiccups for me (a trick, I think, that would normally work).  Nothing.  These bastards didn't want to go away.  I've had them kick on about seven or eight times and each time they get worse.  I fear the next they rear their ugly tissue they'll pop my lungs clean out of my chest.

It's a pile of suck... but I may have finally controlled them.  Going on 6 hours now and no relapse.  Wish me luck.

Today's been pretty good, if you can't be bothered to read the rest of this entry :p

In netball today, we were coached by Denise Ellis, who actually coaches England under 19s, which is very exciting. She's going to be coaching us for the next few months, so hopefully we'll be able to win more matches than we are now, which is a fair few ^_^ I did however make a big fool out of myself by showing just how unfit I am, although I think others were finding it a bit tough-going too. Can't wait 'til firstly Wednesday because we have a league match and Saturday, when we have the regional round of the national schools&colleges tournament. If we go through, we'll be representing the southwest, but I don't honestly think we will. Even so, there may be talent scouts there so I'll have to work my arse off extra hard to prove to them I'm alright! Hope it's a good day and not one of those oh-too-frequent off days.

 

On a closing note, I have hiccups because I ate two bananas in the space of about 10 minutes

Good bite.
