character thinking people
One of the ways I think I gain fodder for characters is by watching people.
watches television
I don't watch a lot of television.
children hands matter
I love to hand sew. I sometimes make clothing for my children, which of course they grow out of in a matter of minutes. I thoroughly love it.
kids motherhood want
I never really wanted kids. I didn't not want them, but motherhood just wasn't something that pulled at me.
grateful embarrassing fortune
I really am profoundly grateful just in general in my life. I've had an embarrassing amount of good fortune.
reading ideas wow
I sort of love reading the scripts and going, 'Oh wow, what a great idea. I never would have thought of that.
running parenting phones
We're living in a time when parenting is not at all mirroring the way I was parented. For me, I just followed my parents around on their errands; when they were busy on the phone, I was quiet. It's a different kettle of fish these days: They run the house, and you listen to their music, and you go to their appointments.
goal acting wanted
I wanted to act; that was my one goal. I wanted to devote all my time to acting and not waitressing or anything else.
naps able afternoon
I love being able to take a nap in the afternoon.
matter body newborn
The second you are handed a newborn it is yours. It doesn't matter what body it came out of. I've never felt more strongly about anything in my life.
women together dirt
I actually washed my window once, and it fell through - it was being held together by the dirt.
fighting boys kind
I grew up kind of a tomboy and I used to fight with all the neighborhood boys.
lying two personality
My actual personality probably lies someplace between the two.
fun home my-family
Coming home to my family afterward makes the work richer, easier and more fun.
