Today while smoking my pipe, I caught myself talking to me.
Sure, there have been times when I have smacked my thumb with the hammer and said. “You dumb ass Frank. How many years have you been hammering?” Or like the time I fell off the roof and hurt my shoulder. “You stupid S.O.B. You knew this roof was slippery when wet. Why did you go up there?”
But today was different when I talked to me. The conversation lasted longer. I can repeat verbatim what was said. I was sitting on my front porch. The dialogue began after about 15 minutes into my smoke.
“WOW. This is good stuff.” Sip.
“I can smoke this all day.” Sip.
“It kinda tastes like.” Sip. “Geez. I don’t really know what it tastes like.” Sip.
“That squirreled has been looking this way for 10 minutes.” Sip. “
“Okay. Gotta relight. No problem. There.” Sip.
“Remember Frank. Sip slowly.” Sip.
“Yup. Like that.” Sip.
“Boy, this stuff is really good. You need to buy more.” Sip.
Then I heard my wife yell from inside the house. “Honey, who are you talking to?”
“Just me.” Sip.
“You talk to you more than you talk to me.” My wife insisted.
That was when my conversation with me ended, and I went into the house to chat with my wife.

I applied for a job at a nuclear power plant once. The application was absolutely hilarious.
14. Do evil spirits appear to you and make you do things against your will?
□ Yes

□ No
Lots of questions like that. The girl at the desk was mad I kept laughing.

Not so much when I'm smoking. It puts me in a cerebral mode when I pretty much inhabit my mind.

I do sometimes murmur to myself, organizing my activities, when I am in a chaotic social situation,

like recently at the state fair. "Jeeze, what a crowd." "Don't want to go back there again." Etc. I'd like

to avoid doing extended discourse to myself.

Yes during my first bowl of Lane 1-Q. I said WTF have I died and gone to hell. I then tossed the rest of the 8oz and asked my higher power for forgiveness.

Of course I talk to myself. Sometimes I need expert advice.
Do you know the five stages of talking to yourself?

1. Talking to yourself

2. Answering yourself

3. Getting in an angument with yourself

4. Losing the argument

5. Demanding a rebuttal

I talk to the dogs, and sometimes when I'm setting outside talking to Lora, I will realize that she's gone inside, and I was talking to the invisible Lora, which gets kind of raunchy sometimes.

Yes, I do. But I have in depth conversations with myself all the time, so beyond the initial fact that it's wierd, it isn't out of the norm.

Even when I'm not smoking. Losing the argument is the worst. Pleased at winning and pissed at losing at the same time. Then I have to tell myself to shut up. No, you shut up. No you shut up. And so it goes........ :crazy:

English is actually an interesting language. In my country, people talking to themselves are definitively unnormal. However, I do know many people talking to themselves in English as I'm one of them. :D

As long as you don't ask yourself to repeat what you said you're OK. :wink:

Not since the last argument I had with myself. I'm no longer speaking to myself until I get an apology. And, believe me, that's not going to happen! I'd kill myself before I apologized for what I said.
