Weird things about me ......part 1 because you know there is a wealth of material on this subject

I hate chocolate Ice cream, detest it, especially if it a really dark chocolate....don't know why but I do. A half gallon of that shit will get freezer burned before I eat it.

I so really want to join an adult dodge ball team but I never had fast enough dodging skills and always was decked square up side the head in the first freaking round, falling on the floor like a chicken with it;s head chopped off, only to be sent to the sideline to nurse a severe concussion.

But by far I think the strangest thing I think I do is that I often carry on conversations with people in my head. Sometimes it's repeating a conversation I had earlier, but it goes the way I wanted it to go (like I get to use the snappy comeback I thought up hours later). Sometimes it's in preparation for a conversation I'm going to have, practicing what I'm going to say. But usually it's just me talking to random people about random things that happen to be on my mind. This is fine, except when I get really into my imaginary conversation and start using facial expressions and gestures, which invariably carry over into the Real World. This is worst when I'm having an imaginary conversation in Spanish, because my limited vocabulary in that language has always left me to resort to gestures and dramatic facial expressions in order to get my point across. Sometimes I walk down the street by myself and suddenly discover I'm rolling my eyes or sneering at strangers. Never mind! I'm just having conversations with the voices in my head! Nothing to see here!

  2. It's cool I think everyone does that but just never admits it. And yeah, don't you just hate when you think of that awesome comeback hours AFTER the conversation?

  3. i carry on conversations in my head too. there is always things that could have been said, or situations i would love to create. It is funny though, as if the conversation actually arises in reality, i get nervous and find i can't talk about it!

  4. Wow, talking to yourself - I do the exact same thing but I've never been able to phrase it quite like that. You sound completely justified, rational and normal to me! :)

  9. Guilty here too, Kat... But in my case, the thoughts are generally externalized as world-hating mutters. Suspicions of senility abound...
    ...And Another Thing!!

  10. I hate HATE chocolate ice cream and yeah I carry on conversations that have happened in my head. Sometimes I carry on conversations that may happen at some point. I do this sometimes to some point that I'm like seething in my head until I realize most of this happened in my head.

  11. Your reference to dodge ball made me think of the Wii sports where you have to dodge the ball and the cleat and the pig head, etc.

    But, when I got to reading the part about talking to yourself in your head that somehow escapes into facial gestures and the like, now, THAT had me going..I catch myself doing the same thing! Sometimes, my husband catches me in the middle of one of my episodes, looks at me and says, "What are you doing?"

    "Oh, nothing."
