See, I told you.

No comments. But that's ok.
I'm really writing to the audience.

I don't know when I was aware of them, maybe around age 10? But I do know that there is a whole "taped before a live audience" watching me at times. Not in a Truman Show way necessarily, but in a sly, barely there way.

No, I'm not nuts. I've talked to other people who think this also. But you can't tell me you haven't had the feeling that there is a silent laugh track going on somewhere. Is this my awareness of a conscience? Of God or "guiding angels"? (that's a whole other post or 2!) Or is it narcissism that I think anyone would be interested in my daily grind?

Maybe it's the product of being an only child until almost age 7. I had very few people to talk to , so maybe I invented the audience to hang out with me. I wasn't an invisible friend kind of kid, but maybe in fact I was.

OK, I guess I should get some work done. The audience is very interested in what I have to say about them, but they don't get to have all the fun.
