Do I contradict myself? Very well, then I contradict myself, I am large, I contain multitudes.

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.
