    You'll be ok as long as you don't start loosing arguments with yourself. It's too cold to be sleeping on the catwalk.

    i talk to myself when the truck is rolling
    i stop once the truck stops

    i looked it up in a psyche book , its simply the vibration and almost endless movement that excites the nervous system ,
    the vibration is processed into something
    intelligent by the brain ...and wallah .... we talk.

    I talk. I sing. I yak back at the radio and my podcasts. I make stories and jokes. I dance if the song is good. As long as you are driving dressed and your feet and hands are where they are supposed to be, big deal. Talk away.
