Wow, Perna, I can relate so much. Sometimes a grocery store clerk saves my weekend. If they only knew.
There are times I have startled the cat by speaking and breaking the silence. I don't mind the silence at all, but that is different from interacting to get out of my head. I wonder if the cat is in his head when I startle him...
