1. You find yourself listening to five different conversations at once.

You can't seem to pick one that you want to be a part of, so you just don't pay attention at all.

2. You're just chillin' and your friend turns to you and asks for your opinion, and you just don't know what they're talking about.

"How long have I been gone?"

3. You're so much in your own head, you shut out the world's noise.

This can either be considered rude or zen, but I like it.

4. You catch yourself thinking about what you're going to eat for lunch instead of listening to their dilemma. 

Them: "So then yesterday, she walks in and says to me, 'So listen...'"

Me thinking: *I could go for a quesadilla right about now.*

5. You find yourself not caring what others think a lot.

This, my friends, is the key to happiness.

6. "Wait, what did they say?"

I don't know and I don't care.

7. When you get asked to explain what you mean but don't know where to start because you just have too much going on in your mind...

It's easy to forget that you need to participate in conversations once in a while.

8. People catch you off guard all the time... 

I feel stupid, but oh well.

9. "Remember? I told you about that!"

I'm sticking to my guns.

10. You catch yourself in a loop of "wow", "that's crazy", and "oh my god" when you're not listening...

The infamous nods paired with a stern look seems to do the trick.
