I am lost in thought Some one will have to catch me up later.. Sure, I’ll pretend I was listening with a hmmm mmm here and a nod there.. but really, I’m on a journey... a retreat for my mind ... from this mundane conversation... so I’ll treat myself with this little trip... just about riiiiight here* in this very one-sided “exchange” so boring I may as well be elsewhere... anywhere but here... you prate on and on... self-absorbed, as am I... So preoccupied with your chatter... you don’t even seem to notice that you’re talking to yourself

Mental Break
I am lost in thought Some one will have to catch me up later.. Sure, I’ll pretend I was listening with a hmmm mmm here and a nod there.. but really, I’m on a journey... a retreat for my mind ... from this mundane conversation... so I’ll treat myself with this little trip... just about riiiiight here* in this very one-sided “exchange” so boring I may as well be elsewhere... anywhere but here... you prate on and on... self-absorbed, as am I... So preoccupied with your chatter... you don’t even seem to notice that you’re talking to yourself
For those who have ever found yourself in a boring, one-sided “conversation”
