Inside Doug's Head

I am not a number, I am… What's that stuff they make glue out of? I'm that. Forever swirling, forwards and upwards, but always sticky. Sometimes, a little sad.

That is a difficult title to write. The two meees. No, really, what is the plural of me?As in the two people who I am, not two moose. The singular dichotomy of me. Me, as if I were two distinct people. One with a brain, and the other, differently enabled.

There’s the part of me that wants to do a great job, with vision and imagination for the best way to present my ideas. Charts, and pictures showing how each concept relates to the next. Look how clever I am!

And then there’s the part of me where deep down I realize that nobody is paying attention to anything I do, and drinking until 5am affords me the time to do the one thing I am really good at: leaving sarcastic comments on YourTube (because it ain’t mine). When it gets to the point that I have to close one eye to see straight, it’s time to go to bed.

Guess which one wins out every time.

—DG.
