I do it all the time, the commentary in my head will spill out in words and sometimes I don't realise I'm doing it. It's probably all part of viewing the world as a spectator sitting behind a mobile TV screen - we're constantly being monitored by our own dual nature, so being a narrative species it's only natural we would externalise it. It's called the human condition.
I'm always holding obviously one-sided conversations with my Sam, in private of course. Even if she can't hear me, the model I hold of her in my mind and built up over the years carries enough information of how she would react and think for me to consult her opinion on things that weigh upon me. If nothing else it obviates the loneliness a little.
