Increasingly, I have found myself thinking in abbreviated phrases. And recently, the urge for me to verbalize said abbreviations has become more and more apparent. It's kind of getting embarrassing.

To clarify: when I say "abbreviated phrase", I do not mean the acronyms that have proliferated our society via Los Interwebinos. Rather, I've just taken to shortening key words within my train of thought to a select few letters.

Example!
I like m potatoes.
Would you like some c slaw?
When I walk to the gro sto, s times I talk to myself. It is sweet.

Is this normal? Am I jumping onto the bandwagon or booking a seat on the crazy train? Maybe I should just blame my new subconscious speech impediment on our fast-paced, consumerist society where snappier phrases = more marketable and thus more profitable?

I'd actually like to think this is just the universe telling me I have a burgeoning rap career. M Po rhymes with Ghetto WAY better than Mashed Potatoes, after all.
