When I was like five or six I wanted to know how my brain worked, like how different scenes and memories would go through my mind. I couldn’t figure out the mechanism of it all. So I concocted this theory that involved something akin to ants. Brain ants.
A couple of them would scurry across my brain, holding up a a screen, kinda like a movie screen. These ants were quadrupedal instead of hexapedal, like normal ants. Reason being that they had to hold up the screen with their front two legs--well, arms.This obviously happened tons during even just one minute. I have a lot of brain ants.
But looking back, I think I had meta brain ants. When I came up with this idea, I pictured the ants working, doing their thing. Woah.

This is an awesome idea. Also, did you draw that picture? Because it is also awesome.
Ditto to AL's assessment of the sketch. I really like it.
I've always thought my brain was like a bouncy-ball that moved between tangentially-related things until I lost where it had come from...
I did draw it. I figured that since I have meta brain ants, I have the clearest view of what goes on in my head.
Em, I think this is what you mean by your brain.
