Nope.

I do it all the time. It might not be weirdness or old age. It might just be voicing your thoughts. And maybe its something to do with the two parts of the brain, one part dealing with the immediate and the other thinking about all the different options.

I often talk to my self and normally my inner critic answers. ☺ need to get that voice a bus ticket out of my head someday!

No. I'm afraid if l get into a back and forth conversation with myself, we will argue, and that could escalate into name calling, and then it could really get ugly. ?

Before I retired I worked alone trouble shooting electrical problems on Commercial Air Conditioning, people would stop and think I was talking to them. I was just approaching the equipment on a quantum level to understand what is wrong by asking it. Well that's what I told them. hahahah

I do that.

All. The. Time.

I do while driving! I'm complaining or cussing someone out for doing something stupid that makes me have to break or etc

We used to have a roofer that came in after we were done framing, name Pete, who worked alone. The contractor said, When Pete starts talking to himself loudly, you better watch out, because he was flashing back to 'Nam.

I talk to the cats, which is about the same thing. I had a horrible cold a few weeks ago, I had to talk out loud so I could figure out if I had a voice and if I should go to work. I spend a lot of time on the phone, if I can't talk there is no sense in going to work.

And she hasn't kicked you in the nuts yet?

Everyone does it. No one admits it.

What I tend to do is work out how conversations will go, and how the other person will react. I play both roles. I have yet to have a real conversation go the same way as a rehearsed one.

All the time. I'm the only one I can find who will agree with me.
