Okay, Miss Jessica, it's time I tell you and the rest of this list that we are secret twins. I was more than a little surprised myself. I have been compared to Tanya Donnelly on several occasions (see inside-- I think-- Blake Babies' Innocence & Experience album. Profile of picture of a younger incarnation of Tanya laughing...). Moreover, my students last semester got together one day and determined that I look like Claire Danes, which I've been told since My So-Called LIfe was still in syndication. I'll admit that I've never compared to Lisa Loeb (and obviously your friend was mistaken. You don't look like Lisa Loeb either, since you must, by default, look like me), but (dramatic music, please) two of my friends saw The Last Days if Disco on the same day. Both called me afterwards to tell me how much I resemble Chloe Sevigny. After this self-obsessed spiel, I come to the conclusion that Jessica and I must resemble each other somehow. Anyone think we could have been separated at birth?
