That all depends on who I believe myself to be.
If I am just the backstage manager and part-time go-fer for the Muppet Show, then I am the most myself when I'm at the Muppet Theater during either rehearsals or show times. I'm in my element, seeing to the needs of the guest stars and the regular performers, running various errands for Kermit and making sure that everything runs smoothly (or as smoothly as things ever run around here).
If I'm Skeeter's twin brother, then I'm the most myself when I'm with her whether that's out on the town somewhere or just here at home. I listen to her stories about work and her life in Peru, I reminisce with her about the "good ol' days" of our childhood and tease her like I used to when we were kids. Of course, Skeeter can dish out as good as she gets.
If I'm Scooter the regular guy, then I am the most myself when I'm at home by myself. I read, I play games on my computer or surf the Web. Sometimes a little bit of go-fer and brother will seep in, like if I'm researching something for the show or if I'm chatting with Skeeter over the webcam or something.
My point is...I suppose I'm all of those things. It just takes different places to bring out the best in me.
