Moving along..
The other night I had the craziest case of the hiccups and I was flipping out. B assured me that he could help after I complained to everyone and anyone that would listen. He pulled me aside on the sidewalk and told me to focus straight into his eyes. Naturally I thought it was silly and creepy but he assured me that it would work. I started for like 20 seconds and then I heard "Rach!" someone yelled, I looked to the left. "NO!" B said, look at me and only me. I resumed. "tell me when you have the urge to hiccup" "right now" I said, like a kid learning how to ride a 2 wheeler for the first time, anticipating their fall. "Really?, k, just keep focusing into my eyes" Nothing came out. "Wait, now" I screamed, again nothing. After 2 solid minutes of intimate/awkward soul gazing, my hiccups were gone. It was riveting. I was shocked that I was able to even hold the stare for that long because I have a very hard time looking anyone in the eye for more than a few seconds. I find it to be very intimate. Anyway- B rules to the max.
Obamas speech tonight took me back to my HS days when we watched the Martin Luther King footage. His voice was so loud and intense, I was convinced that he was MLK reincarnated. I was just waiting to hear the gunshots in the background. Thank gd they never came. Ill leave the politics talk for tomorrow nights dinner.
I love DVO. Hes seriously one of my most favorite people in the world. Always game when I am.
