There is a myth that when George Lucas was creating the character of Chewbacca, that he was inspired by his dog (he owned a Bouvier des Flandres at the time according to the myth) and that he used his dog's voice for Chewie.

Whenever I would feed TinyMonsters, we'd make him wait before we'd let him eat. I'd tell him to "wait" and then I'd put the food down and he wouldnt move till I said "Ok!". Tiny was really good at waiting, but he'd be swearing in Bouvier Wookiee-ese the entire time. Sounded just like Chewbacca in the Star Wars movies. He was such a cool dog. I'm glad that I got to have him as my last dog. (not getting another one again...probably) I have some of his hair, if I could clone Tiny, I would.

Do it all the time--talk to myself, answer back, have whole imaginary conversations out loud. Helps me plan for possibilities, eventualities, and what ifs.

And here I am, the gal who wanted to follow others down the street as a teen to listen to their conversations, doing it myself. Gotta wonder.

On the plus side, at least I know I'm doing it.

First off - HUZZAH! You found us!!

OK, I talk to myself alot. I don't think there's anything wrong with it. And answering yourself isn't bad either, just shows good manners. Just watch out if you start to argue with yourself out loud....

OMG...when I read your post I said...self look at that she does it too...

My honey always says to me that when you two get done talking I would like to talk to both of you...

Dang...I talk to the animals as if they can understand all I can say...

Do any of you use hand gestures while chatting alone? I find myself in a thought or silent conversation and poof, I'm using my hands to go along with my animated thought

Ya, an intelligent conversation is hard to come by, I am to smart to answer the dummy though.

Yes,I'm guilty of talking to myself as well.

I thought everyone talked to themselves.

Oh well I guess it's just the special ones that do.

<-------------Talks to self

I had to giggle over this one.I also talk to my weenie dogs like humans,And we have a pit,his name is catfish. I talk to him too. And at one point I was talking our nemos in the fish tank.
I think I do that mainly cause I am at home all the time,and the kids r in school,so their the only ones I can talk to. LOL. And they listen pretty well too.
but yes I talk to myself,if I want to remeber something,or if I do something stupid. Ill call myself a dumb,dumb.
It is kinda weird too.The dogs sit there and look at me like im nuts. lol.
