I sometimes have pretend conversations with myself. I don’t plan them. I just say something, then I’d say the next thing that flows on naturally or that I think will prompt an interesting turn in the chat. I guess I end up with the kinds of conversations that two Joan-like people might have.
Anyway, I was doing this while washing the dishes today and I made myself laugh.
| Joan 1: | “So, can you tell me a bit about yourself?” |
| Joan 2: | (‘What a broad question!’) “I come from Australia…” |
| Joan 1: | (‘She looks Chinese…’) “Have you always come from Australia?” |
| Joan 2: | “Well, I guess for my first two or three years in Australia, I came from Taiwan.” |
Is this normal???haha;)
I think people will tell me it’s not normal.
In a similar way, I tell jokes to myself. I make up something without thinking too far ahead, then sometimes I come up with a really funny punchline. I can crack myself up this way.
Normal? Maybe not.
