Last night we watched the movie, “Scorched.” There was a scene where someone had hiccups. Being scared cured him.
Today, perhaps synchronicity, I got the hiccups just as I was entering the grocery store. Two store employees were talking. I came up from behind to ask if they had organic onions. He turned just as I was standing and practically jumped out of his skin, expressing how I had scared him. Although, the situation was reversed, him getting the scare and not me, my hiccups were cured. And, also, thankfully, they had organic onions.
A colored pencil drawing of onions by me.
