I can have several streams of "inner monologue" at any give time. For instance, I can have both a song playing in my head (which is almost always, unless I'm listening to actual music) and working through thoughts that does seem like a conversation between my inquisitive self, and my "need to know things so it can make a difference in reality" self.

This is why I'm so often listening to podcasts or music, because it settles that. Both touching grass and smoking grass can turn those thoughts down a little too.

But I have to admit, it doesn't really bother me, and I even kind of like it. I think it stems from being a generally introverted only child who loved going into the woods to read books as a kid.
I can't imagine what not having that inner dialogue would be like. Seems quiet.

Interesting topic. Worth a zap.
