No News Update #1 + Silly Internet Quiz
Posted by Liza under Silly Internet Quizzes, Pregnancy
I realized a few minutes ago that since I am obsessively clicking on blogs of other almost there Moms, maybe you are obsessively clicking over here too. Especially since every day when I walk into work, I have several "you’re still here!" conversations, both live and via IM.
So I am going to take on posting "no news" updates as well as updates of substance, when I have something of substance to say.
I’m still having just a couple of contractions per day, an hour or hours apart. The fridge was fixable and may even already have the broken bit replaced. Smudge is still kicking around.
And props to Jen (in MD) for this amusing web site, which claims to determine which celebrity you look most like, although I don’t think it works terribly well. It claims that Jen looks like Elton John, and depending on which picture I used, it said

I look like either Renee Zellweger or Camilla Parker-Bowles.
Using a different picture — my work ID, in fact — it matched me with Dennis Hopper and Manuel Noriega.

actually in that picture you do kind of look like a combination of camilla and renee if you melded them together in one person. i got elton john, but the female i supposedly looked most like was gwyneth paltrow and i actually think i sort of look like a meld of them together too.
but i’m home sick today and am feverish so this all might be the fever talking.
thanks for the “no news” updates. are you going to bring a laptop and blog from the hospital?

well, it said that I looked like Kate Winslet. Let’s all pause for raucous laughter.
It said that Kristin looked like Elizabeth Taylor. That’s not too far off…

it also made my husband Jason into Duke Ellington. Liza- Did you know you have a black sister and brother in-law?

Too funny! I thought that you and Jason were closer to the same age!
It said that 1 of my coworkers — also female — looked most like Billy Bob Thornton.
