Soliloquy
There are, DIH has learned. pros and cons to talking to oneself.
Some of the pros:
It's amazing how the crowd parts to let you through if you're the lady muttering to herself.
You always have company.
Hm.. I seem to be out of pros.
Some of the cons:
Embarrasses your family. Which, come to think of it, can also be considered a pro in the right circumstances.
The guy next to you in yoga class might hear you. Especially if you happen to be muttering something like "man-boobs, man-boobs."
Somebody might come back with "You talkin' to me?" Then you have to play Movie Trivia with him until he gets bored.
I guess I was just lucky today with the "man-boobs' bit. The guy was too busy admiring his perfet form int he mirror to notice, or care. Still I'd better get back to breaking the habit. Movie Trivia loses its charm after about ninth grade.

How is "talking to yourself" much different from blogging? :-)
ReplyDeleteHey, it beats muttering to yourself on buses.
