| Introduction | i love to people-watch and make up back stories to everyone i see at random. it's not judgmental, it's imaginative. i've had the same best friend since my first day of kindegarten and probably will until the day i die. i'm wicked pissah competitive about really stupid things and i like it. i lived in boston for less than two years and will never give up the phrase 'wicked pissah' or the red sox even though i probably should. i like to laugh more than i like just about everything else. my family cracks me up more than anything else in my life--if another reality show was needed, it should be called 'dinner with doug' and it should be meal times with my family. i have probably done a dance at some point in my life to any music that would be played softly in a public place--i still remember every dance i've ever done--i will probably start doing that dance in that public place. i think the world is coming out of another dark age and we are about to witness a renaissance! and revolution will be on every street corner and no one will be able to ignore it. |
| Interests | really good musical theater, conversations that never have awkward moments, quick wit, sun showers, lakes, the red sox, the lincoln center library, the spirituality that coexists in india, the 2008 presidential elections, making out like it's high school, naughty text messages, my family, l-e-x, how relationships change and when to know what's salvagable, how to become a better person, going to africa, memories of old friends, making faces at babies, tap dancing in grocery store aisles, seeing my talented friends do their thang, researching topics that expand my brain, live music!...and my amazing miracle baby nephews, carter and logan. |
