Random thing I noticed
Ever since I started writing every day, I've been thinking almost exculsivly in full sentences...describing settings and emotions in my head, thinking how I would put them on paper....it's kind of strange

I narrate my own life to the point of having to stop myself from saying, "I nodded," and to nod instead.

Well I'm glad it's not just me. When I was learning shorthand I did the same thing - I didn't see the words as normal words in my head, I saw them as shorthand. You get over it eventually! lol.

On work days I talk to my wife in 10-Codes. She hits me a lot.

I read a book about not putting tags in after speech - one of them really made me laugh - it said 'she harkened' So now of course hubby always adds that to anything dumb that I say.

I don't narrate my own life. I just always imagine that it's not my life. I just can't take my mind off my book.

I sometimes think how my current situation would sound if I told it like a story...it's rather odd... :-/
