I can hardly stand to listen to myself. I speak in "old sayings", cliches, idioms, analogies. I hear myself doing it, and I can't stop. I'm like a charicature of an "old person".
This is what is happening: Other person: Joe and Sue are on opposite shifts at work... Me: Two ships that pass in the night. Other person: I'm so anxious, I keep checking my email. Me: A watched pot never boils. Other person: I wonder if I should spend the money on that test? Me: Well, it's better to be safe than sorry. Really?? Is this what it's come to? Am I going to have to pause for fifteen seconds to consider every response to make sure I'm not a JOKE? Can I please blame it on MS? Cog fog? Fatigue? AAARGH!
