What’s your inner voice saying to you right now?

Mine’s saying, “Damn, I want some BBQ ribs tonight”.

Mine is telling me to stay in Oklahoma and not go back to England.

I think it is probably quite right, so am trying to confuse it into silence with vast quantities of gin & tonic and Carnivale on HBO. Bear in mind Carnivale is being watched thru ‘tv snow’ as I don’t legally get HBO. Now inner voice wants HBO. Sheesh.

Inner voices do not understand the complexities of making a flat sellable, packing up 17 years of life, and the fact that a job would have to be found in Tulsa, which is damn near impossible.

My inner voice is a whining child … just when I’m about to fall asleep, it starts shouting for attention.

Bring on the gin!!!

Can’t… scratch… cut…

_But it itches, precious…_

No, no, can’t scratch…

_But we wants to, precious…_

It’ll never heal…

_Just a teeny little scratchy, precious. It itches so…_

I used to find the whole Gollum voice upsetting, but I find we gets used to it over time, don’t we, precious?
