If you count who occupies the same space as me, it is a toss-up between my significant other and my sister. I don’t speak to my sister that much, but when I do, we have great conversations. My Sig-other, we spend a lot of time together doing things more than having deep conversations. Home repair, golf, motorcycle rides, and cooking are all regular stuff but we don’t interact very much. Sleeping doesn’t count either.

If I’m honest, I have more conversation over three to five hours of golf with strangers than people I live with. Most of it isn’t very personal, just talk and the occasional joke. Really, if you can’t laugh about golf, you shouldn’t play.

I wonder if the voices in my head count. They always have such interesting ideas and comments. I’ve learned not to repeat them in public because that would be insane. Right? Not you. I was talking to them. Ok, I was writing to them, nitpicker. Yes. You’re crazy, not me. Now just shut up. I forgot what I was writing about.
