Hiccups Start the New Year! at 4 in the morning, something very unexpected happend-I got the hiccups! I was laughing when I felt myslef jerk. I waited a while, and to my delight, more came! They were silent, but extremly hard...I always knew my silent ones were hard, when I got one or two out form laughing, buht this is my first case in a very long while..I also believe I got them because I ate alot today, mostly seafood [crabs,lobster,shrimp] I went out to celebrate the end of the year, so i was real full as well. The hiccups ended up lasting a WhOLE HALF HOUR.Thats the longest I've had the hiccups! It may not sound like alot but it was alot to me.The hiccups really made my chest cave in and my tummy jump out. I dont think you'd remmeber but when I first came I asked about inducing hiccups..but what a way to start the new year! Click here to return to the list of sightings or hereto return to the Main Page!
