Merry consumer-driven seasonal celebration

Joy, it's Christmas.
I'm aching like hell all over for some reason. Legs and back hurt especially. Did I fight my friend when I was drunk that time? I remember a little scuffle.
My body and I aren't co-operating very well. It really didn't approve of that cigarette, but it need not worry, it was pretty disgusting anyway - woke up with a slightly sore throat and a bad cough, but it soon faded. I don't offer it enough chance rest and heal. I guess that's the reason for most the pain.
I often look at myself in two major parts; physical and mental. When the body communicates, in my case, it is through mental imagery. I picture parts of me, inside or out, with whatever reference I can recall from secondary school science text books, and with sound and visual interpretation I gather up most of what it tries to tell me. What exactly is mental self communication and why do we feel the need to speak words of a certain language inside our heads in order to understand our own thoughts? Granted it doesn't have to be like that one hundred percent of the time, because sometimes it really is just a feeling that we understand. Like instinct.
I do find that there is some fun to be had in imagining the body is essentially another entity that you share your(whole)self with - mine just doesn't speak as much as I do. Partly retracted; sometimes I am quite serious when I look at myself like that, as opposed to fun being had in that process.
To be honest, I'm just bored at the moment. I should sleep (...maybe watch a film first) and give my body fair time to heal.
