Trying to maintain some order around here

Sharing is caring

Mort: Have this
Me: I don't want it
Mort: HAVE IT
Me: It's all damp and smelly!
Mort: IT'S LOVELY HAVE IT
Me: Fine! I'll take it!
Mort: YOU CAN'T HAVE IT IT'S MINE! Hahahahahaha! I'm SO FUNNY! It was so funny when I did that

Sometimes I wonder if we're on the same side

My brain: Dogs, dogs, dogs
Me: I'm trying to sleep...can you think of something else please?
Brain: How about some lovely whales instead?
Me: Yes! Whales. Great.
Brain: Swimming around, and making noises, and...FIGHTING! SPLASH SPLASH SPLASH HAHAHA
Me: Oh god
Brain: Remember when there was that grey whale with her baby, and those orcas -
Me: Shut up shut up shut up
Brain: ...and in the end they only ate the tongue!

Dog logic

Me: Mort, wait in the kitchen
Mort: I will wait in the kitchen
Me: *Really obviously goes into the living room and intrepidly hides the Kong in a really obvious spot*
Me: Find your Kong!
Mort: It must be somewhere in the kitchen

Starve, then

Me: Morning, cats. Breakfast time!
Harry: But Magnus is using my food bowl
Me: You can eat from Magnus' bowl.
Harry: Normally I eat from my bowl
Me: This morning you have to make an exception.
Harry: I don't have to put up with this.

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...
