Don't just ramble on- create a storyline, a theme, a purpose, a climax, an ending- and of course, cast yourself as the hero! I've found some great resources through the National Storyteller's association. They offer fun workshops around the country if anyone is interested. The key, I think, is CRAFTING your story.

(ha) My girlfriend traveled without me this winter and when she came back I actually couldn't relate to what she was talking about because I wasn't there. It was strange. Now I know how people feel when we talk about our trips. When I get back from a trip now, I rarely pull stories out right away. Instead I'll talk about them if something related comes up. (but then, also, I'm at risk of becoming the guy who says, "that reminds me of this time in Luang Prabang...") Tell me about it! (ha)
