you question your authenticity

I had a lovely conversation about that new Zooey Deschanel show The New Girl with Sam.  She could not stop laughing when she asked if I knew the writer or something.

No.  Why?

Because, according to her and Thony, the main character reminds them oddly of me.  She sings her own name and everything.

I mean, I watched it with my other sister Pam, and I didn't laugh as much as she did because, well, it just seemed normal how Zooey's character was acting.  Pam was a little confused as to why I wasn't as amused.  I did laugh though.  More laugh, then quietly die inside I guess.

But now I'm going to be inauthentic as a person, like that time when I had to break up with my vampire boyfriend because people thought I was just following a fad.

Or that time I had to put make-up over my natural lightning bolt scar.

Or that time I had to give up my quest to destroy this old ring I found.

Sheesh.
