Uggo

Today my mum told me I looked like Betty. As in Ugly Betty. It's fun to be referred to a character who has the word "Ugly" in their name. In other words, in the absence of "Betty", my mom totally trashed talked me and called me ugly. Secondly, how my mother knows anything about American contemporary media is beyond me.

I embrace being ugly.Ugly is the new pretty. Well not really, but I tell myself it is. It's because I bought new glasses which in the words of my father, are "nerd glasses". The fact of the matter is, I'm, at the very heart of it, a very cheap person (and a nerd). I like to get the most frame for my buck, and if that means horn rimmed glasses, horned rimmed glasses it is. I don't believe in thin frames or frameless glasses. When I want to look like a norm-y, that's what contacts are for.

At the heart of it, you shouldn't be judging books by their covers. You should be judging them by the photo of the author in the back and then judging that author's credentials to write a book.

That is all.

Oh just as a sidenote: I realized both my Uncle and I think Greg Kinnear have the same glasses. So what are you saying mom? Greg Kinnear is ugly? huh? yeah... what now! It's always been my childhood fantasy to look like a handsome male. Awesome.
