Considering the story I'm about to share, it may seem a little self-serving to tell you how much I love New Girl. But I do. It's hilarious. Just saying.
Zooey Deschanel as Jess!So my friend Sanaz tells me that I remind her of Jess - which is super flattering. ...even though I don't have brown hair or wear glasses. My mom was willing to accept this comparison, but insisted on the caveat that I'm also similar in character to Dr. Brennan from Bones and Sheldon from Big Bang Theory.
Emily Deschanel as Dr. Brennan
Jim Parsons as Sheldon - er... Dr. Sheldon CooperWell, that was okay. I mean, all 3 characters are really smart (oh... is that me being self-serving again?) and fun and original. I like to think I'm these things, as well. Even though I can't really be mistaken as a long-lost Deschanel sister (3rd cousin once removed?).
But then my mom started telling my brother and I this story last night (shout out for a family game of Yahtzee!). She was going on and ON about this wack-a-doodle who attends the local high school she works at. About how the poor thing is so anti-social and too smart for his own good ... and about how MUCH like Sheldon he is.
"But Mom. You think I'm like Sheldon. I'm social."
Crickets, friends. Your girl didn't even try to print a formal retraction.
It really is lonely at the top.

Oh, don't fret about the implications of being "anti-social" by comparison to a fictional character, you are who you are, and nobody is 100% like anybody else, anyway.
That being said, I do get compared to Luna Lovegood from "Harry Potter" an awful lot, despite not having read the books, and only having seen the first movie.
Thanks for your comment!
Thanks for the vote of confidence! *And Luna Lovegood is incredibly sweet and loyal. It's a compliment :)
