Lost without Olivia

Awhile back a person commented that I look a bit like Olivia Dunham on Fringe and I was all WHO's Olivia Dunham with fringe what?

Then Clay and I started watching Fringe and right away I agreed with the commenter. Who am I to argue? Obviously I have the smartest readers ever!Olivia and I not only look exactly alike, but we also have the exact same lives. I mean she really could be me! What with the gun slinging, abductions and serious butt kickings that I do on a daily basis. Also, we both wear long black coats. I know! She is me, I am her! Who could question the similarities?


Yesterday I picked up my new eyeglasses. They are amazing! Everything is so clear now! Unfortunately, when the fog cleared and the crisp outline of my face emerged in the mirror I didn't see Olivia anymore. Young, beautiful, smart Olivia turned into........







this.


So I pulled my scraggly hair back and.......


OLIVIA!!!!!! OLIVIA COME BACK!!!!!


Olivia.....
I'm lost without you!

LOL! I'm the one that said she reminded me of you! Funny thing is... my husband said a couple weeks later that she reminded him of me! LOL! When I was younger, of course. and thinner. ugh.

And Fringe and Lost are the two shows I watch. Because they are weird.

OK, I give up. Who is he? I don't watch Fringe but I'm happy to say that you do look more like her then him. Thank God.

Haven't seen the shows but seems to be your coat was orange or something weird, and yeah I can see it. You know a lot of us would look preety good with those photo shoots and the fans blowing our hair. They could even make me look young again; well maybe not.
Whose that guy? He's cute.

Whatever.

I like Fringe. That and Life on Mars have been fun this year, but I'm a science fiction person. Battlestar Galactic is where I'll be on Friday.
You should try www.zennioptical.com. My husband found it last year and for the first time in my life I can have a choice of frames rather than the same ones everyday. They cost about $8 and are just as nice as the ones from the stores.

Rechelle,
Do you want me to say that you look like Olivia too?

Maybe if we precariously propped her up on a couple of curvey wooden pegs then she would look like you.

No wait, then she would look like your hutch.

Dang, if I wasn't so funny, I'd think I was really mean. You know I love you.

Love, love, love LOST. Am lost without it. Is there anymore seasons past no.4? Please tell me it will be in Australia soon.
I love your blog, it especially keeps me entertained when it is 43oC outside on this very hot Summer day in Melbourne, am so glad i have air conditioning.
You lady are a crack up and always brighten my day. Thank you!

It's 110oF in your measurement - all I really know is that it's really, really, burn your feet on the path, hot, hot, hot!

April said...

Michelle,
You will be happy to know that Lost just started season 5!!!

And could you please stop telling me how hot it is there, I'm freezing.

My husband read your comment and is now saying everything in an Aussie accent....mate. He's stupid.

You do look a little like Olivia. I may be able to tolerate her a little more now that you have pointed this out to me. I just wish she was funny like you instead of all intense all the time. At least she isn't intense like the girl on The Eleventh Hour who totally cannot do intense. She's funny without trying to be. Actually, she's more annoying than funny. What I'm trying to say here is that you are better than Olivia! And also that Sawyer is much hotter than Olivia, though not quite so hot in those photos. Oh, and I am totally impressed that you can grow a beard like that. How does Clay like you with the beard?

Kim said...

Actually I think you look more like Helen Hunt. The hot blonde who doesn't even need make-up to look naturally gorgeous.
Jerk.
I mean...no. I'm not jealous at all.
I will say getting new glasses a few months ago helped me see new things like stop signs I was never aware of before, but I avoid looking in the mirror at all costs when I'm wearing them.

Becky Meyers said...

ok, you should be happy you dont look like olivia anymore, while she IS pretty, she is a TERRIBLE actress!!! the show needs to kill her off and bring in someone else! i can't stand her! besides, sawyer is HOT! and he can act, so its ok, i bet clay still loves you even tho you look like sawyer :)

Rosie_Kate said...

AH-HAHAHAHAHAAA!!! Oh, I almost spit my toast out my nose... yeah, that would hurt.

So hilarious!

Leila said...

April, please do not take Sawyer's name in vain.

April said...

BECKY MEYERS!!!!

I love her! I can't believe you think she's a terrible actress!!! Do we need to meet up at MG's house to discuss this some more? We can also discuss what nickname Sawyer would give us.

I think he might call you Cupcake.
