my inner voice right now won't stop nagging me about the job hunt/ my lack of focus. I wish it would shut up so I can make some progress. Sigh. However, it was pretty happy with me/ quiet in New York.
Ha! My inner voice is a pessimist. Most of the time I'm tying it up, stuffing a sock in its mouth and throwing it in a closet. Given that, I'd have to say it's never really happy with me at all. ;)
I ditched being small and scared and listening to what other people thought I should do (which was a thinly veiled "I want you to f**k off out of his life so I'm going to pretend it's the best thing for all concerned") and realised a few things about my own feelings and my own strength.
If I stop being to afraid to listen to it, that inner voice of mine is actually a stubborn but sensible little soul.
...Never, to be honest. My inner voice is never really happy about anything. She's always pissy. There's another voice, though, and he's a touch more optimistic about where i'm going and what i'm doing.
I guess the last time either one was happy with me was when i cut myself off that last drink saturday night so as not to trigger my gag reflex. o_0
Actually, I was thinking about something similar just the other day.
A few days ago I did something [it was actually quite trivial] that, several months ago, I would have popped myself in the mouth for. I didn't, but a few seconds later, I sensed something was really wrong. Took me a moment to realize that I *hadn't* hit myself. Crazy.

A little cryptic, I know...
