thinking twenties enough
I went through all my twenties thinking that I wasn't good enough.
thinking feel-good feelings
I think so much depends on how you are feeling mentally and emotionally. I try to keep my head on tight, and try to feel good, and just go out there and not be afraid.
fun thinking poke
I'll do humor about myself, I'll poke fun and everything, but that's me and I can do it to me. I think it's cruel to do it to somebody else.

During Designing Women I went and did Love Letters a few times, but that was it. Aside from that, I hadn't done a play since drama school.

Blanche talks about aging, and why should she be considered poor, because physical beauty is transitory and fading and she has such richness of the soul. I think that speech is so beautiful, and so telling and so true.
came carried hat looking miss sword theatrical wore
I got into my very theatrical phase. I wore only black: a big black hat and wild hair and wild black clothes, and I carried a sword stick. I went there still looking like Miss Florida, and I came back looking very different.
I was surprised to find that I missed doing the musical.
land promised safe scene wonderful
I loved getting to do Promised Land with him. I mean, he's really there for you. We did one very emotional scene in the church. He's just a wonderful acting partner. You feel very safe with him.
All the nice things about Suzanne are me. All the things that aren't nice, that was just the writing.
acres time
One time we did have 300 acres in watermelons. That was fun.
rose single
If you want to say it with flowers, a single rose says: "I'm cheap!
blame clumsy
I wish I could blame it on the choreography, but it's not a musical. I just had a clumsy moment.
girl fashion want
I want to find a way to reach young women emotionally and also to start providing clothing for them so that they can wear the same things their thin friends can wear. I really want to do evening wear and prom dresses for these girls.
