:) I was always taught it's the ones who question their sanity who tend to be sane....it's the ones who don't question it, you have to watch out for ;)

I talk to myself often...it's only when I start answering back that I get worried :D

(course i also talk to my dogs like they are people.. as if they have any idea what i am saying to them.. but at least they look interested LOL )

like when driving today i kept yammering on about how much i hate our snow blower.. and trying to figure out what i am gonna say to the shop i bought it from... its brand new and has been in for repairs more then it has been at our house.. nothing wacky or anything.. i guess you could call it thinking out loud.. or trying to work my problems out... out loud...:rolleyes: but i just hope i am not the only one.. MS or not it makes me feel a little nuts that i do that..:o

Yes, I talk to myself (no one else will) I also talk to my dog (the dog is dead, and his cremains are on the headboard of my bed...his box is really pretty)

So far, TinyMonsters has not talked back to me since he died, when he was alive, he talked to me in Bouvier-ese all the time (watch Star Wars, listen for Chewbacca, that's what Tiny sounded like)

Definitely PunK! I think it's more like thinking out loud for me. Except when I talk to my cats, which I do quite a bit. I actually have one that 'talks' back. When I talk to her she always responds with a meow after every sentence! I suppose she thinks I understand her LOL! It is really funny! I think it's normal but when other people hear her talking back to me they think it is hysterical!

My talking to myself has become the family joke.Even our 6 year old granddaughter makes fun of me. No respect,no respect <in my best Rodney Dangerfield voice>

Ok, it sounds goofy, but so what. If I'm goofy I can live with it, cuz it works for me.

Anyone else?

:hug:

THanks for saying it for me! :I-Agree:
