Analogies 02.26.2005

At last, the staples are out. The funny thing was, when I was told in the Emergency Room that they were going to staple my head, I envisioned that the aforementioned staples to be used were a medical version of the common household staple. However, the illusion was shattered when I looked over at the table in the doctor's office yesterday after their removal and saw what appeared to be the same kind of metal staples that I staple into documents at work on a daily basis. EGADS. I look back at that with a smile on my face.

Another funny thing that happened after the appointment was the woman in the passenger's side of a hospital service truck. This woman sees me, says something to the driver, turns her head back in my direction, rolling down the window, and says, "Has anyone told you that you look like Brad Pitt?" I was flabbergasted. "No. Thank you," I said. I was grinning with shocked excitement at this compliment. I was flattered. Sure beats having someone tell you that you look like Christian Slater or Chris Kattan. No offense at all to the well-meaning friends who have made those observations, but in the case of the Christian Slater reference, I HATED him at the time. Hence, I was not too amused. On the plus side, another person said I looked like Radiohead's Thom Yorke. That was flattering, too, since I think he's hot.
