Okay to tell you this mini story I must tell you something rather embarrassing about myself. I have this annoying little quark, where whenever I laugh unexpectedly or for a long time, I get hiccups. You know...the really hard kind that make your chest hurt.
Alex (my soon to be ex-husband) and I used to laugh together a lot. Usually because we were sharing our events of the day or our observations of others. I have a way of weaving a comical scenario and so does he, so we commonly laughed together. Every once in a while (more often than I'd like) I would laugh so hard that I would get hiccups, which would send Alex into an unsympathetic wave of laughter. Who could blame him for his jeering? I thought it was entertainment worthy myself.
Anyways, today my son was saying a simple phrase but he was testing out a new character voice while doing so. He was saying something about "the empire is at hand". It made me laugh so hard I began to hiccup. It was then that I realized I hadn't had the laughing hiccups in over a year. For whatever reason they had disappeared but now...for whatever reason they're back.
I'll take that as a good thing.

About Me
- Cherish Shalom
- What can I say about myself that you won't discover in my writing? Well, after a failed marriage, I am a single mother and am at the beginning of a very long journey to a Bachelor's Degree in Journalism. I enjoy sharing little tidbits of life with you through these blogs. I hope you find them as interesting as I do. I chose the picture of the cemetery because it is a visual representation of a thought that runs through my head constantly. Life can be so tragic, I am thankful that there is beauty in the beyond.
