Well not really to herself just like...idk how to describe it. Like her phone or computer will be slow and she'll be like, "come on" to it or something like that or she'll move around and say stuff like "alright" or "here we go" 

It's really annoying

Cough on her

So I was coughing a bunch yesterday and at the time no one was sitting at the place where I was turning my head to cough but then she came in and sat down there

Now compare that to one of my guys that constantly talks to himself, full on conversations, and has been caught by other guys talking to himself in other voices, including an old ladies voice (which we assume is his mom's who died over 10 years ago). He'll have full on conversations with himself, and even arguments with himself as if there were another person with him.

At least he probably has some kind of mental illness no idea what this lady's problem is

I mean.... she's not talking to you....I don't see the problem. Certain people just do that. Hell, in self check out people "oh c'mon" or "what are you doing" the machines all the time.

 

Yeah, it's weird to audibly talk to machines that don't respond to voice commands, but it's not even slightly uncommon.

It's just like, constant with her. It's like people that smack their lips when they eat or make "Mmm" or other such sounds as they eat

Eating is something different..I dated this chick that used to go hell yeah (not emphatic or anything....just like a dull "hell yeah") and it used to drive me nuts. 

Like to the point I would wait for her to get a few bites in and get it out of her system before I started eating so it wouldn't piss me off while I eat. 

I mean it didn't even have to be anything special.....like it could be the tortilla chips at a Mexican restaurant.  And it's not like she was greedy or some shit....she just never could allow silence...needless to say, it didn't work out.

I think I'm going to start doing this.

This afternoon she was yawning loudly every few minutes and every time she yawned she would say things to herself like trying to hype herself up to stay awake or something

Not saying that "oh shit" is better than "fuck" but I try not to say fuck infront of the old ladies XD

Most the time Oh Snap comes out .... or ah hell

She also sighs really loudly for no reason at random intervals 

This is often a sign of early stage congestive heart failure. The yawning too.  You could be rid of her sooner than you think.  :ghost:

I sigh a lot too, but it's because I have a tendency to hold my breath while I'm working on shit, and then I need to sigh to catch up with the oxygen depletion. :/

That's just play-testing. If the conversation doesn't sound good in the bathroom by yourself, it really won't if you ask other people about it.

If that's your only symptom, you're fine.  If you get tired easily or need to lie down a lot, then maybe pay attention?

Btw, sighing is critical to lung health.  We usually sigh about every five minutes to one degree or another (some more noisily than others apparently).  This reinflates any random alveoli that may have collapsed.  Scientists didn't realize this until iron lungs came along and people were still dying in them from collapsed lungs because they couldn't sigh.  Even ventilators for temporary assisted breathing or when you're under anesthesia are now programmed to include artificial sighing (there's also a button to do it manually if a longer inhalation is needed).
