Hypothetically...
A few days ago I was bored, so inevitably my mind wandered into the wasteland of celebrity debautchery. As the harp music cued my imagination, I imagined the following scenario:
If my life were to be recreated by Tinseltown filmmakers, who would the Hollywood version of me be played by based on personality and appearance? Who would play my friends, etc?
I thought this would be a fun game to waste some time over the long weekend with Erik, but when I asked him who he would cast as me, he clearly did not know the rules of the game, nor did he care at all to play to begin with.
"Uh, I don't know, what's that actress again... oh yeah, uh... Penelope Cruz" he stares blankly at me.
"Erik, you have to at least think of someone who looks somewhat like me!" I say exasperatedly. Latina, I am not.
"I don't really care. This game is stupid. You are taking this far to seriously for something that will never happen," he replies.
"Oh, but come on, just think about it for a second, just say someone who is the same race as me!" I goad him.
"Alright, I would cast you as Star Jones. There, now you have it."
So according to Erik, if my life were to be portrayed on the Silver Screen, Erik would cast a freakishly addicted to plastic surgery Black woman to play me. Thanks, Erik.
What do you think? Which Hollywood person would play you?

Hmmm...I'd be flattered if it was Catherine Zeta Jones :)
Thanks for saying hi!
Hi, Vanessa!:o) Thanks for leaving a nice comment on my blog a few days ago....you were my one fan this week!
By the way, I love YOUR blog!:o) You're a very witty gal, and I hope that someday you will realize your dream of becoming a travel writer, 'cause I think you'd be great at it!
Who would I like to play me in a movie?....Mmmm....I think I would pick Maggie Gyllenhaal (right spelling?). She is skinnier than me and prettier than me, so, yeah- HER! (haha)
Tori Spelling! Minus the bad boob job of course :) and for me? Well - I;ll have to check out Sarah Polly like you said.
