For me, coming to work and laughing is so much more preferable than coming to work and having to cry over a corpse or something. That's a drag.
I certainly did plays in high school and community theater, and I want to get back on the stage.
My husband has no desire to work with me. He gets paid a lot of money to write giant movies. He's not into humoring me with my projects.
Writing is difficult. It's a time commitment, it's labor and I'd have to get myself to sit down and actually do the work and outline.
It's so hard to find the time. I only have one kid and it's hard with one kid. I can't imagine people who have more than that.
I've always liked being funny and making people laugh. I was a cut-up when I was a kid, and was always doing bits for my friends and family.
I like starting off the new year fresh. I'm excited to see how 2013 turns out. Maybe because I'm an actress and I am always on a diet and fitness program, but my New Year's resolution is to let myself be nice to myself about my body.
I never underestimate the power of hot rollers for your hair and eyelash curlers for your eyelashes.
I love my nose! I was so nervous when I got pregnant that I was going to get that weird nose spread that you sometimes see pregnant ladies get.
I know so many people who actually just watch television on their computers now and don't even really watch their TV anymore.
I think every job that you do gives you the opportunity to learn something new. As hokey as that sounds, that's why I have a problem saying no to my friends. That's why I do so many random comedy shows.
I had a baby with no pain medicine, mainly because most people I talked to didn't think I'd be able to do it. So there!
Freaks and Geeks' was a show where our individuality was really celebrated.
The rugs that I picked out and the pillows with the little owls, sort of like whimsical throw pillows - I feel like you can never enough whimsical throw pillows in your house, in your life. My husband probably disagrees.
