Doppelgangers
Some one, somewhere, said that we all have Doppelgangers. Eh, sounds like an interesting idea, but never saw it, so, whatev (yes, I have been watching WAAAAY too much YouTube featuring folks BORN in the NINTIES (and do you realise that some of them are even ADULTS--dude--that's just weird). But, now I have personally found TWO Doppelgangers that look like my best friend Quimby and now me. So now I can't totally discount the phenomenon.
So Quimby (I may have mentioned this somewhere earlier, but I'll mention again because it's my blog and I can say ANYTHING--and knowing me: I'll say it repeatedly, just to make sure I said it.) has a Doppelganger that is actually right around her age (I do forget how old she is because while she was only 2 years behind me in school is was something of a smarty pants and skipped a grade or two-I say this quite lovingly btw). Okay enough with the asides! Quimby's Doppelganger is Jennie Breeden from The Devil's Panties. It's bizarre! It's not exact because dude that would be freaky, but you see it in the eyes, the hair and especially the smile and well they are both geniuses and it SHINES forth from them. I am also pretty sure Quimby's Doppelganger is shorter than her (which I like because as you know--or may not--I get slightly jealous of the tall people in my life).
My Doppelganger is Tessa otherwise known on YouTube: Meekakitty! (The irony that she is a model is not lost on me: ego me...NEVER!) Jamey found her (because he has a minor obsession with YouTube and always finds the strangest, neatest and most bizarre people/videos) and he said, Gee she LOOKS like you and she even makes the same annoying sounds. So if you ever wonder what I sound like: I sound and act like her. Hyper, random, and always loosing the train of thought. My eyes are lighter than hers, but we both have the long red hair and elfish face (but I HAVE the elfish ears-grin) oh and somehow she's ten million times more photogenic than I am. Oh wait: I don't usually post pictures of me on this blog (there is a reason, read the previous sentence), but I do have two places...my Twitter (follow me!) and MySpace. Oh and if I am off my rocker--comment me! Or if I am not, still!, comment me.
All we need to do know is find Phisto's Doppelganger. She's out there somewhere! It'll be hard to find I think because of the AWESOMENESS of Phisto.
Because my husbands minor obsession with YouTube: he shows me all cream of the videos he finds and all I can say is this. I am SO glad that YouTube was not around when I was in Highschool: I would not have graduated. I would have spent my entire life making videos. I am also glad YouTube was not around when I was in Austin (One and Two), because OM MY GOD, while it would have been highly entertaining it would also be very embarrassing to have actual records of "what is was" up on the internet, FOREVER! Imagine: the Night of the Many Scarves posted in perpetuity?! I can already hear Quimby scream, "Gods NO!!!!!" Now I can't deny that the thought of adding a video blog now isn't a fascinating concept right now. You know I have a little blog addiction: adding a video blog would be fun. AND I wouldn't have to worry about spelling or typos!! Woot! But, there are SO MANY "buts"--like the stammer. Ick. I can hardly stand to hear my self do it never mind having to WATCH myself stammer. However, I do not stammer when I talk to myself or when I talk to the mirror (I do talk shows in the mirror--grin). I could just pretend that I am talking to myself--which may be a fact since I do get so few visitors to my blog--smile) But the few that I do get-are my friends--some whom haven't talked to me in ages,...or in the example of Michelle form Down Under--NEVER and I have known her for OVER ten years.
So, I may do one, just for Michelle.
Yeah, I would have to do something with my hair (and get dressed)--and some make up--and a clean backdrop (unless you want to see the Sharpie creations on my walls???)
