My #3 son has a unique problem... People stop him ALL the time and say he looks familiar...
He tells me that they'll say he looks just like, "You know, that guy from Planet of the Apes!"
"Charlton Heston?" I ask...
"MOM! Not that OLD movie!"....
And for some unknown reason, whenever anyone mentions that old movie, I can't help myself...
I just have to do it...
My REALLY bad Charlton Heston impression...
"Take your stinking paws off me, you damned dirty ape!"
That's when #3 looks at me with a look that says either,
Mom is sooo funny!
or it could be more like
Mom actually thinks she's funny...how sad!
(I choose to think it's the first one)
I think he's handsome, and to me, he looks like himself...
Here he is with Baby Sister...
Here's Mark Wahlberg, his supposed look-alike...
I wonder if people ever stop him and say "You look just like that guy who built his own car!"
We have a White Oprah (Tonys' sister L.)
A White Diana Ross (that's MISS Ross to you!) - (Tony's sister J.)
Carol Burnett & Vicki Lawrence (My Mom heard that one LOTS when I was a kid)
Alyssa Milano (Son #1's Fiancee)
We have a close friend that gets mistaken for Liam Neesin all the time...
I'm not sure if he corrects people or not...
It's funny, but no one ever mistakes me for anyone else....
Except for long ago, I worked as a waitress... there was a girl that worked at the same restaurant, who I, personally, didn't think was particularly attractive...
OH YEAH! You know it!!
People used to call me "Sue" all the time!
Why, oh why couldn't it have been the really cute waitress that caused all the mix ups with me?!!
I would get huffy and hostile every time someone started to say "You look JUST like..."
I would glare at them and hold up my hand to halt that sentence....
"DON'T....EVEN....SAY....IT!!!!!!!" was my warning to them!
I'm hoping that after I lose a few pounds, I might start getting mistaken for someone like Miss January 1979 or Heather Locklear....
As well as displacing
large amounts of it
while I'm at it!! ;)

Actually, now that you mention it...

Ha!
The Flying Nun...
That's you alright!

Hi Jackie,
Thanks for stopping by my site! And welcome to blog world!
I don't think I would complain about looking like Marky-Mark. Now if he could just get a cut of his salary, right?
I read back a little. I can't believe you have kids in HS and you are a grandmother! You are busy! Of course this will give you plenty to write about!
:)
Found your site today. I have had people tell me that I look a little like Cheryl Ladd. I wish!
Sue,
Thanks for floating by!
Don't think for one second that I haven't already thought of all of the excellent ways he could pamper me in my old age if he did! Ha!
;)
Jackie
Many years ago, many pounds ago, when I had longer, bigger, curlier (and more...ha ha!) hair I used to get told I looked like Sarah Jessica Parker.
p.s. you have a beautiful family!
