What do you do in the real world?

For the record, the weather was VFR the whole way (and I knew it) so I
was a good deal more casual about it than I would have been if it had
been IMC the whole way.
If visual conditions prevailed, the regulations say you should fly as if you
were under VFR. Which is all well and good, I suppose, but it doesn't provide
much guidance. The real question is: What should you do such that ATC will be
able to understand and anticipate your actions, so that they can continue to
provide separation? Just flying as if you were VFR doesn't answer that
question, because even VFR you'd normally be in communication with ATC in
controlled airspace, and in this case you've lost that.
