I was dying to do that, to work with Jodie again.
expression autism doe
Autism does exist on a spectrum, and there are so many manifestations of it, so many kinds of expressions of it. And every case is particular.
helping married feels
I like marriage. I feel very secure. It helps when you are in love with the person you are married to.
nice people appreciate
I have to expose myself and then accept the judgment that audiences and critics will have. And that's okay. I appreciate the elliptical nature of it. Sometimes people are more in the mood to be nice to me than others, and that's great.
nice thinking kind
Well, it's true that you often kind of forget to see the person you're most intimate with, but occasionally I'll come to and sort of think, 'Oh my God! You're really, really good-looking! I'm embarrassed now! It's nice to occasionally have that flash.
junior-high juniors kind
I've never dated (casually). Ever. It's kind of weird. I did have a boyfriend in junior high who was a kleptomaniac. We'd leave stores and he'd come out with something for me.
yale tree intimidating
I really liked Yale, although it was extremely intimidating. When I visited the campus, I was hiding behind trees, I felt so unworthy.
being-alone thinking imagination
I have a huge, active imagination, and I think I'm really scared of being alone; because if I'm left to my own devices, I'll just turn into a madwoman.
nice stride get-over
Once you get over that peak of puberty, you hit a nice stride.
parent age driven
I was very driven to act from a very young age, and my parents were not only tolerant of that drive but also encouraging.
