Talking to Myself

Yesterday, working alone at the Shop, I noticed that the charge on my phone was low. I put it on the charger in the office and went back to work.

A little while later I heard a phone ring. 'Ah, someone's phone is ringing', I thought to myself.

"Are you going to answer it?" a voice in my head asked.

"What? Why?' I asked back.

"Because it's ringing."

"Yeah?"

"A phone is ringing. In the Shop. Where you are working alone."

"Yeah?" I asked again, perturbed.

"You're alone in the Shop. It's your phone ringing," I replied pointedly.

"Oh. It's my phone ringing, from the charger in the office."

I gave myself a Gibbs slap.
