What do I do when I come home to an empty apartment at 1am?

    the human head weighs 8 pounds.
    you’re crazy.

    Who cares how big anyone’s head is?!

    Maybe your brain is extra powerful and smart or something.

    Don’t worry about losing weight. You are already healthy and beautiful the way you are.

    I think we can for give you since you were thinking of this stuff at 1:00 AM when most of us are asleep.

    But still… Jeapers! You are Awesome!

    Actually: I disagree altogether. I think you have a complex. And if you’re referring to pictures where you’re next to ME, you should know that people have commented before on the SMALLNESS of my head. If you are an orange on a toothpick, I am a pea on a meercat.

    Haha! I think that sounds funny.

    Really? I think we’re both pretty normal sized. And IF your head is above average, you’re certainly the only one that’s noticed. Silly.

    Word verification? addudm. (Addendum. That is final.)

    Never mind: addendum doesn’t mean that is final, it means to add something on.

    Which.

    I just did.

    today i came to the realization that i have the absolute blackest, thickest eyebrows of any blonde girl in the world.

    so.

    there it is.

    does this make us narcissistic? did i spell that right?

    Greta, I don’t know that we can ever write a book together. Because think of the picture on the jacket. Side by side. The Orange and the Pea.

  7. Greta on September 14, 2008 at 12:57 AM

    Annie, the book will have already addressed us as flawed human beings, so to have a jacket photo of us looking imperfect would be perfectly appropriate.

    Besides, I return to my earlier conclusion that we are both much more normal than you think.
    1.) We are cute
    2.) We are proportionate
    3.) We have heads in varied sizes but both which possess (I will say myself) TREMENDOUS thinking capabilities.

    And, clearly, great humility as well. :)

    I love the look on your face in the last frame. It’s a look somewhere between disbelief and incredulity.

    I second what Greta said.

  9. Annie Parsons on September 15, 2008 at 8:50 AM

    Aren’t disbelief and incredulity basically the same thing?

  10. Tad on September 15, 2008 at 8:43 PM

    Incredulity is a superlative for disbelief. It implies deeper more emotional response to something unbelievable. Like you saw/heard something so outrageous, you doubt your own senses that told you it just happened. Like saying, "What the @&$# was that?!!" rather than, "That was odd."

    Nuh-uh! I’m pretty sure MY head is WAAAAY bigger!!! If yours is an orange, mine is like a pomelo!

    We should totally measure our craniums and see what’s what.

    Um….I just read a comment and I want to comment on it SO badly, but I will do it via email :) hehehe

    By the way, you had me laughing. out. loud. as usual.

    I heart you.

    Fee.self.esteem.falling.

    Need….good….cry.

    Head…huge.

    And just to think – I was, seriously, voted most likely to be an elmer fudd (sp?) impersonator in my high school year book. The people that voted for that need a serious ass kicking….or a head butt to the face.

    I’ve never thought, “Annie is adorable” until now. A very charming video.

    My lips are big.

    (And my head is huge in this profile photo; I need to change it already.)
