I Need A Hologram
If Jem and Madonna can have one, then why can't I?
A hologram. A clone. A body double. Something.
I've always had a pretty full life that I've managed quite well. Healthy balance of friends, family, career, me time, etc. That full life has now turned into mega full life and it's about to spiral out of control. I say that so dramatically, and if you know me, you know that I secretly thrive on it. Except it's getting to a point where I really can't keep up with it all. Things need to be axed.
But what to ax? Can't cut out work, I wouldn't get paid. Can't cut out family, because you just don't do that. And they don't even live here anyway. My friends rock, so they're not going anywhere, even though I'm now juggling two cities full. Gotta have the creative outlet (writing), gotta have my social fun (parties), gotta work on the future business (She Said Records) and gotta have some time with my man (cuz he's awesome).
So, I'm requesting a twin. If any of you know anyone that can fill in for me while I'm attending to other business, please call 1.800.clone.me and my assistant will set you up.

Okay I clicked to post a comment and Newton took mine!! Multiplicity will change your mind. Besides, one Jill is enough Jill. No offense. Besides you would HATE it if you were not unique. I know I would.

You have an assistant but you want a clone?
I think this clone thing would be counterproductive for you. I think it would take more of your time away because you would be bitching and complaining about what your clone did or did not do. It would go a little something like this:
Jill1, "The Frickin clone was supposed to write a frickin post on my frickin blog but she forgot to do it of course, so now I have to come up with some creative crap to keep all my audience coming back for more!"
Jill2, "Frickin Jill1 wants me to come up with some crap for her frickin blog but I don't have time to do that because I have to go to some show with my man and drink some Stellas after I get done with frickin work!"
Obviously this would cause some major confusion in your life and is only a recipe for disaster. Besides sometimes don't we already have two Jills, ie big Bryan? Maybe you should not try to make so many commitments and stretch yourself so thin.
