And Now the Rest of the Story...
Id, Ego and Super Ego. We all have them. Id=impulse, Ego=order and logic, Super Ego=morals and values. Yep, we all have them. I on the other hand have regular conversations with them…sometimes out loud…like right now! Sometimes when I’m not in my right mind…my left mind gets very crowded.By the way…for the sake of this post, Super Ego was on vacation…therefore there is little value and no moral for this post.
Ego: “What are you doing?”
Me: “I’m writing a post for the blog.”
Ego: “You do have other things to do today you know.”
Me: “I’ll get to them, relax.”
Id: “I’m hungry…how ‘bout pizza?”
Me: “It’s 7:30AM! The pizza store isn’t open.”
Id: “How ‘bout a jelly donut?”
Me: “You know I don’t eat sugar!”
Id: “Oh…and it’s ALL about you, isn’t it?”
Me: “Well, actually yes…it is. Have a bagel.”
Id: “Cream cheese?”
Me: “Fine.”
Ego: “You could at least start a load of laundry while you write.”
Me: “Bagels, laundry, just let me get the idea down.”
*Brief pause to start a load of laundry and fix a bagel with cream cheese*
Id: “Hey, this is plain cream cheese! I wanted tomato-basil!”
Me: “Eat!”
Id:”What? You couldn’t toast the bagel?”
Me: “EAT!”
Ego: “You know you have a summary due to a client tomorrow. You could focus on that for a while.”
Me: “Will you please get off my back and help me with this post?”
Ego: “Well…technically…I am.”
Id: “I want another bagel.”
Ego: “I heard the washing machine buzzer…time for the dryer.”
*Brief pause to load the dryer*
Me: “now I’ve lost my train of thought. Help me out here!”
Ego: “You really should take the dogs for a walk you know.”
Me: *Deep sigh*
*Long pause to take the dogs for a walk*
Ego: “So…how do you think this is going to end?”
Me: “Not well I’m afraid.”
Id: “Hey, it’s 1:00PM…do you think the pizza store is open…double cheese, peppers…black olives…deep dish, I want deep dish.”
Super Ego: “I’m back! Anyone want to see my vacation photos?”
Me: “Too late.”
I’m just saying.

Oh...my...goodness...are you sure you aren't SPYING on my Brain? That was wicked spooky close to my everyday life!
Be mentally well, Ron...
Love it! and I think we must be related - well, at least our egos etc!!
:D
First - I don't think it's really a pizza "store" technically, but maybe that's the whole weird Canadian thing kicking in. *snicker*
Seriously? This post made me understand that your brain works A LOT like this toy http://tinyurl.com/5qa8ak Lucky for you I loved this toy growing up! =) Yeah - I'm simple like that! =) hehehe
Jewell
I think I completely lack an Ego and Super Ego
Hi Lisa-LOL - it does get crowded doesn't it :)
Helo Shirley and welcome! Twin siblings of different mothers perhaps? :) Glad you enjoyed it.
Hi Jewell - The place where I usually get pizza actually is a store. It is a gourmet grocery store that sells made to order pizzas and boy are they good, mmmmmm. Love the toy! Yep, that's kinda how my brain works.
Hi Megan, I'm sure they are in there somewhere...maybe they're just shy :)
Thanks for atopping by.
Ron
Thank goodness I am not the only one...
Ron, you are a complete mentalist. I can't believe that you have publicly versed the conversation between your id, ego and super ego! Made me laugh my head off though!
Hi Ron... Just hopped over here from Annie's place. Nice blog you've got here. Just enough derangement to keep it fun. Also, I heard you had bagels. ;)
Hi, great post!! That sounds like the sort of argument I have with myself on a daily basis! :)
Jayne - welcome to my humble blog. I always have bagels so stop by often :)
Mytressa - And so you are welcome to join the support group :) You are welcome here anytime.
Be well,
Ron
