Fair description. I usually tell people I have several internal monologs at the same time, and not in a conversation with each other, only with me, speaking over each other.

Lets call all the internal monologues "threads". Cause they can get tangled up. Roll up in a ball and get stuck under the couch for years.

As a programmer, I agree with the term "threads"

In Dutch we say we lost the thread, if we mean lost the train of our thoughts. ( de draad kwijt zijn ). 

The word thread is connected to mental thread in Dutch.

We say "den roten Faden verlieren" in german ("losing the read thread" literally)
