Break a leg


Crunch

My leg: CRUNCHITY CRUNCH
Me: OWWW!!!!
Mort: Oh, you're on the floor! What fun! There's a smell over here. What are we doing next? Are you getting up? What if I climb on you? Oh I tripped over your leg! Oh whoops I did it again! Lol.
Me: I thought dogs were supposed to HELP THEIR OWNERS IN DISTRESS

NOX

Part of my mind that is still me: What's happening? Where am I?
Part of my mind that has embraced the laughing gas: Shhhhh! It's all faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaine
Me: Ouch! I'm sure that hurt, it felt like it should have hurt
Laughing gas me: WOW that pain was PURPLE!
Me: What are they doing to me?! My leg shouldn't feel like this.
Laughing gas me: Purple pain, purple pain...

Loyalty

Me: Mort must be pining for me while I'm in hospital. My poor boy!
Mort:

Internalising


Leg: Sorry guys, I'm out of action, so you have to lie in a bed for a while.
Ears: Ok! We will help by producing lots of extra wax
Brain: Ok! I will help by playing vivid memories of all the times you have done something wrong, and how bad you felt, interspersed with what you should be doing right now and how you are letting people down.

Returning home


Me: *slumps onto sofa at home* Phew! That was a mission.
Mort: YIPPEE! I thought you were dead!
Me: Can you please get off my face?
Mort: If I lie on your head you will never leave me again

What are inaudible dialogues?

Simply put, an inaudible dialogue is a conversation that nobody can hear, because it happens in your head. Is it still real? I think so, but if you're a stickler for reality, perhaps read My Science Game instead. I started writing inaudible dialogues as Facebook posts, years ago. Usually, something had passed between me and a cat that was so obviously a conversation that I had to share it. The fact that no words were spoken didn't matter. I am about to post an archive of all the Facebook dialogues that I saved, but most have been lost. They were always meant to be temporary, because they capture a snapshot of that moment shared between me and the cat, dog, shower curtain or whatever other creature or object was involved. However, they seem to be popular, so I will post them in this blog for others to enjoy. As unreal as inaudible dialogues seem, they capture real life. They can happen at any time, while you're doing any boring, mundane thing. To me, the dialogues wi...
