I woke up with hiccups. I hate having hiccups. Violent contortions of the diaphragm aren't exactly my cup of tea. Ugh. >.o And none of my tricks are working to stop it today. *whines*

Ok. Must try to work on scanning despite hiccuping. Will succeed.


Bah. Anyone who has a hiccup cure that works and isn't drinking water, holding breath, the horse thing or vocal exercises made to relax the diaphragm, please help! I can't get my hiccups to stop. T_T


<EDIT> Yay~! Gone. But ew~~ mouthful of pure sugar. *makes a face* </EDIT>

well, believe it or not, but once someone told me to think of something really disgusting. it worked. But you'll need a really evil imagination. @_@;;

or maybe you could try the whole get someone to scare you thing? (except... if you ask them, you'll be expecting it and therefore not as scared? o_O;)

Well that only totally peaked my curiousity. (And yes, I have a very evil imagination.)

Scaring has never really worked for me. My mom usually tries that one first and fails miserably every time.

I can draw exxxplicit HYDE/Leehom smut that might scare the shit out of you, but I read that you've stopped hiccuping, so. *gazes at unused smut-bunny sadly*

I don't think mentally scaring and scarring are quite the same thing. Close, though. >.> You can draw the smut-bunny anyway. Just leave a warning so I won't have to look at it.

er...has vomiting ever proved to be an effective method against hiccuping? XD

(and come on! it's HYDE. I'd watch him have sex with anything. well, anything bipedal at least.)

I'd imagine violent contortions of the stomach might overrule violent contortions of the daiphragm, yes.

(I can see him with most people... but some are rather off limits in my mind. Such as Sakura or Leehom.)
