Art Vs. Life

Since I'm hopelessly addicted to "Arrested Development" and needed to catch up on all the Season 3 episodes before they injustly take it away from me and leave me with tripe like "Skating with the (Washed-up) Stars" and "Jennifer Love Hewitt's Boobs See Ghosts!", I've recently seen all the Rita episodes. While watching this character, I started noticing some similarities.

1. She likes singing along to "kids music" and I constantly seem to hum "O Tannenbaum" without reason or notice which is a Christmas song and we all know Christmas is for kids.
2. She wears a coon skin cap. I wear a rabbit fur hat in the winter that makes me look like the redheaded stepchild of Meriweather Lewis and Marge Gunderson.
3. She likes to ride the spaceship at Fat Ammy's. I like to ride the carousel at the Zoo, at the Butterfly House, and at West County Mall, but especially at the Zoo. You can ride a capybara!
4. She wants to go home to get her "tiny teddy" when Michael asks her to sleep over. I immediately thought of a teddy bear, which is what she was really after.

I'm not sure what this says about my mental state, but I've never worn anything inside out which may be my saving grace from being forced to wear a MR F ID bracelet.
