Oh, I do get lonely, yes.
I'm a gemini, and I get so bored so easily. I mean, I have moved six times in the last eight years.
I just am a snob when it comes to humor.
Always a godmother, never a mother. That sucks. I've got to get me one of those little accessories.
Aging gracefully is one thing, but trying to slow it down is another.
If I like myself at this weight, then this is what I'm going to be. I don't have an eating disorder.
What I wish for myself is that I could be the kind of person who just goes, 'This is what I need,' and doesn't feel bad about it.
I'm a real people person and I'm very sensitive, and I've just noticed how other actors that I've worked with, as an actor, take direction from people.
I'm not a housewife in any way.
A lot of my humor does come from anger. It's like, you're not gonna pull one over on me - which is pretty much my motto anyways.
I don't have time for superficial friends. I suppose if you're really lonely you can call a superficial friend, but otherwise, what's the point?
I love working with actors, and it's great that I'm an actor myself. I know how I like to be directed and how I like to be talked to.
You know, my mother's beautiful, my dad was a really handsome man, and there was a lot of talk about looks when I was growing up.
At one point my dad called me and said, 'You have always been a great salesman. I think it's time you come home and sell swimming pools.'
