Inner Monologue

Sometimes an inner monologue isn’t just a single patronizing voice, but a cacophony of interconnected intuitions that spawn action and art ex nihilo in ways that are ineffable.

No? Just me? Nevermind, I’ll be over there.

Looks like ADHD to me

Funnily enough, I have been rested for ADHD by professionals. Not even borderline.

The test itself is an ADHDer’s nightmare. First they ask you to look at a few pictures, then you take a 250 item questionnaire, where some of them are the same, just worded slightly differently, then they ask you specific questions about the pictures you looked at 250 questions ago.

It’s the reason that to this day paperwork of any kind makes me anxious. Signing up for accounts included.

Celebrating 4/20 the same way I do every morning: slowing down the inner monolog with some weed.

Sometimes my inner monologs have to shout over my inner radio station. Which is now playing "Where is My Mind" by The Pixies, on loop.

Lucky. Mine has been playing “Thong Song” by SisQó

I’m an engineer of sorts, so it’s allowed me a livable income.

Ya know how when TV's used to be unplugged from cable and it was just the black and white static/snow? That's how my mind sometimes feels.
