fun mean flirting
I think flirting is great fun. It doesn't mean that anything's going to come of it but it's fun to be told that you're hot and that your tits look great. You all get your pens out.
karma worry trying
I'm probably my biggest critic. I worry that if you spend any quality time reveling in good things then karma will slap you upside the head, so I try to stay as even keel as I'm able.
gay littles boxes
You can't just put gay in a little gay box anymore.
gay men talking
Rather than ignore those who choose to publish their opinions without actually talking to me, I am happy to dispel any rumors or misconceptions and am quite proud to say that I am a very content gay man living my life to the fullest and feel most fortunate to be working with wonderful people in the business I love.
past worry important
As I learned from chapters past, it's important to try and stay in the chapter that you're in, and enjoy it while it's lasting. Not be constantly worrying about where this step will take you - living in the potential future. Like a good meal. Like a good chef's tasting meal. You don't want to wonder what's next while you're eating the foie gras.
simplicity musical emotion
I love the American musical for the simplicity of emotion that gets expressed.
moving careers next-move
I like to make decisions based on things I'm interested in doing, not what seems like the next move in my quote-unquote career.
heart thinking acting
I think things through a lot, so I probably use my head more than my heart. That probably comes through in my acting.
interesting chapters fortunate
I've been very fortunate to go from interesting chapter to interesting chapter.
fun age my-favorite
My favorite time to dance is at, like, wedding receptions, when it's all ages and everyone seems to be having fun.
play rocks san-diego
It's good to have a lot of once-in-a-lifetimes in your lifetime. If you get the chance to skydive, go skydiving. If you're offered a part in a weird Shakespeare play in San Diego, slap on some tights and rock out some iambic pentameter.
technology firsts stuff
I love technology. I buy all of the stuff when they come out first.
home play people
With the Tonys it's a little tricky because a lot of the funnier jokes are more insider, so people watching at home may not get a Julie Taymor reference the way that New Yorkers would. So you have to figure out what comedy plays to a large audience and still respect the individuals who are there.
interesting achieve process
I've been very fortunate to go from interesting chapter to interesting chapter. I've always enjoyed the process and always enjoyed working more really than the end result of what it achieves. I'm more interested in doing the work.
