Yo dawg! Check it out...

At the prompting of my ever witty and extremely observant cousin, Lindsey, my next Celebrity Corner victim is none other than my ever faithful husband and best friend--the J man.


Be warned, however, that this post may not last forever in cyberspace. At some point in time, Justin will see my evil doings and I will have to pay. Yes, that's right. Domestic spectacles of entertainment usually do not bode well for marriages. So, enjoy it while you can, because I'm sure I will have to remove these silly musings in the VERY near future...

Okay, so celebrity look-a-like #1 comes from the observations of Lindsey herself:

CASEY JAMES
(a.k.a. Kara DiGuardi's Next American Idol)

Actually, I thought this guy looks a lot more like one of J's friend up in RV...Mark...which if he sees I wrote this, I'm sure I'm dead meat too!

And now here's the J-man with the biggest smile he'll sacrifice for the camera:

Look-a-like #2 comes from the observations of the Bucksta:

CLIVE OWEN

Look-a-like characteristics: Green eyes? CHECK. Dark hair? CHECK. Pink Tie? NOT CHECK.



Look-a-like #3 came from my mind because when I went looking for pictures of Clive Owen, I was reminded of another U.K. home-dawg:

GERARD BUTLER

Did you recognize the former Phantom of the Opera star? Yeah, me neither without the mask.

And last, but not least, here's the one Justin will NEVER forgive me for...but it's the one HE said people told him he looked like:

BILLY ZANE!

So, there you have it. Take your pick. Which one do you think is the best look-a-like match? ......Hurry, I think I hear J coming in the door!!!!!

My excuse is I need an outlet...

I really shouldn't be blogging right now.

I really should be doing a million other things right now like a) wash dinner dishes, b) clip my nails, c) prepare stuff for church, d) call my family, e) write Elder Abel Wilkins, f) turn off the DVD menu which has repeated for like the 13th time, g) finish a quilt, h) eat some more cake or i) put the cake away so as to remove the need to do "h", j) remove the 25 lbs. of folders, papers, books, and other miscellaneous unknown objects from the back of my car, or k) sneak a snapshot of my napping husband. But, life is short AND right now I need a mental outlet for my seemingly never-ending, crazy, busy, don't have time to eat, sleep, or bathe life.

Yes, I need an outlet. Period.

I really am not complaining. I really am grateful for the many, many doors which have opened up to me in the last 2 weeks. Between home, school, work, and church, my life has been filled with incredible new (and challenging) experiences which I know I will be even more grateful for at some future point in my life.

Soooo,here's the topic of my outlet today:
