Whose Voice Do You Hear?

I was having one of those conversations inside my head the other day. You know, the kind where you go back over the day's events and replay it in your mind. Over and over again. Or the 'Coulda, Shoulda, Woulda' kind where you wish the situation had turned out differently. Or you imagine the conversations you'd like to have in the future.

This goes on all the time inside my head. Whether I'm dwelling on it or not. Things are always either replaying or playing out in my mind. And I 'hear' the people's voices in the conversations.

But the other day, I had a revelation that stopped me in my tracks. It dawned on me that a lot of those conversations that had been running through my mind the last few weeks were of me using a very distinct voice.

Wanda Sykes.

And, oh yeah, the attitude came with it!

How did I manage that??? I have no idea. But I sure have been enjoying it!

Especially with those imaginary conversations that requires some backbone and gumption. Somewhere deep inside I guess I have this very outspoken and sarcastic nature that wishes to jump out and give some folks the ole 'what for' when necessary. Ha!

Like the conversations you have with your kids in your mind where you remember you need to tell them to clean the jelly up better after they've made their PBJ sandwich. Good Lord, I find that stuff everywhere! The counter, the fridge door handle. (Yeah, underneath where you can't see it.) The fridge shelves. The drawer front below the counter, and the floor. Found a chunk of it there the other day only because I had stepped in it! UGH!

Times like that I whip out ole Wanda Sykes and let 'em have it.

But only in my mind.  ;D
