Doppelgänger

Surely you’ve seen that it is “Doppelgänger” week on Facebook. Aside from the fact that I pretty much despise those “copy and paste” status updates, I wouldn’t have known who to put anyway. Back in Drew Barrymore’s chubbier days, I got told that I looked like her. Not so much anymore. So, in an effort to be really productive today at work, I did the MyHeritage.com celebrity look alike thingee. I used a picture that is pretty much what I look like on a daily basis: hair pulled back, not very much make-up. I couldn't figure out how to save the “collage” of celebrity look-a-likes, but they were Julianne Moore, Gwen Stefani, Erica Durance (?), Melissa Joan Hart, Joan Fontaine, Isabella Hervey (?), Barbara Mori (?) and Tiffani Amber Thiessen.

I really don’t resemble any of them.

I think that the closet thing I have to a Doppelgänger is probably my sister:


In fact, last year when she was in Temple for business, we were at a restaurant and got asked if we were twins. I know we have some similar features, but TWINS? It was funny. (That picture probably isn't the best example, but I'm on a new computer and don't have any of my pictures transferred over yet. I stole that one from her myspace page.)

I was really tempted to post a picture of Gisele or Charlize Theron or Pam Anderson or somebody just to see what people would say, but figured too many people would think I was serious, so I didn't.

That is a really pretty picture of you and Jess.
I don't know who my Doppelganger is. Josh tells me I look like some musician chick (forgot her name) but I think she probably weighs 115lbs. I don't want to put her pic up because people would laugh and that is mean.

Norah Jones? Because there is that one picture that y'all do look totally alike. Nobody would laugh at you.

My captcha is "dosequi" - if you say it out loud, it sounds like Dos XX.

I would say Melissa Joan Hart is close...except for you don't have that lazy-eye thing going on...I don't know who mine is either, which is why I've ignored that status thing all week. Right now, I feel a little like the crazy, blue-eyeshadow chick from The Drew Carey show...

Hahhahah! I think he actually referred to us as "clones." He'd also obviously had several cocktails...

Oh, and I never did that thing, but I think I'm closes to Baby Spice back in the day. Hahahah!
