Doppelgangers

How I Met Your Mother is one of our favorite TV shows. I highly recommend it, but start from the beginning. You'll miss too many inside jokes if you start in the middle. Anyway, there's an episode called Doppelgangers. Not familiar with the term Doppelganger?

Dop·pel·gäng·er

[dop-uhl-gang-er; Ger. daw-puhl-geng-er]
–noun
a ghostly double or counterpart of a living person.

Do you have a doppelganger? Someone you've seen out in the world that looks just like you? Or, do you have a famous doppelganger? My famous doppelganger is Cameron Diaz. I think there's a resemblance, that's what I've been told. I haven't come across anyone ordinary like myself. When I do, I'll let you know.

And get this! I just received my March edition of Glamour Magazine in the mail. When you flip open the front page I was stunned to see my cousin Natalie's doppelganger! She is in a Louis Vuitton ad on the far right. I did a double take. Seriously, if you happen to be in Target or Barnes & Noble soon, take a glance at this issue and see for yourself! It's Natalie!! Am I right?
