Inner Monologues

Quite often I will have long mono-logues going on in my head where I will be explaining some aspect of the modern world to dead people such as Newton, Einstein, Da-Vincii, old English Kings...Normailly I talk about things like the structure of atoms, how the brain works, space and th universe - things I know nothing about save for what I have learned from TV.
Here's where it gets interesting; sometimes I have imaginary conversations (in my head) with an imaginary psychitrist where I describe my imaginary conversations. They psychiatrist normally says nothing.
Moving up another level this led me to have imaginary conversations with imaginary psychiatrists about the fact that I have imaginary conversations with imaginary psychiatrists about my imaginarry conversations. These 'sessions' normally involve me explaining what happens during one of my imaginary conversations. However just last night I decided to try and use these sessions to try and resolve some of my problems. You know what the (imaginary) psychitrist's response was? "You think too much" - cheeky bitch eh!

Anybody else do this? (Please let me not be the only one).

Much lamer:When I play video games I interact in my head with imaginary spectators who kabitz (sp) about my playing. Even worse is they often don't have anything good to say.

Well, I must say there is something seriously wrong with you. I can say this with the utmost authority, because I do nearly the same thing and I know there's something seriously wrong with me. I carry on internal monologues constantly with all kinds of imaginary folk. It's probably because I talk constantly, and must give my voice a rest sometimes.

One time I had the following as an internal monologue:

She should have died hereafter;
There would have been a time for such a word.
Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from pace today,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow; a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon stage,
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound an ury,
Signifying nothing!

Props to who ever gets the quote first.

Yay! At least one person with the same quirk as me. Now I can delude myself into thinking it's normal and sweep it under the carpet.
As for the cool/weird word i suggest: (drum-roll)

Mentexcellent

It's either Shakespear, or Tom Stoppard quoting (and changing) Shakespear.

All the time, probably because I work alone with everyone else in the next room.
