dream years play
Playing Sheldon is just heaven for me. I realize how enormously lucky I am to play a role that makes me so incredibly happy. As I told Chuck Lorre in a Christmas card a few years ago, I'm living a version of the dream.
opportunity way helping
What this is about is hopefully an opportunity for me to help pave the way for my future in terms of getting financially choosier. You have to plan the windfall as if it'll be your only one.
dancing car drivers
I've grown out of dancing in my car - is it sad? Or I've just become a better driver!
mom brother men
I didn't have an imaginary childhood friend, but I did one day imagine somehow tiny green men, and they were only tiny and green because my brother had a ton of toy soldier toys that came on a skateboard plank type of thing, and I just envisioned in this car driving to church with my mom, they were there.
kids doors world
You learn a lot as a kid, like you don't know anything. I didn't know what was gonna happen if I opened the door. I thought I was gonna be in another world somehow.
character order safety
I try to master every facet of a character in order to build a safety net for myself, so I can go on to take more risks to create someone really distinct.
home want barbados
I want to drive! I love to drive! I drive at home in Barbados.
bangs bigs theory
The Big Bang Theory' has completely changed my life.
dog new-york two
In L.A., I have more of a yard existence, and so I enjoy walking my two little dogs in New York - one's a Maltese and the other's a Shih Tzu.
emotional scripts would-be
If I ever wrote a script myself, it would be strongly emotional material.
running thinking finals
You think of it [voicing] as something where you not only don't //need// your body, but you don't even have it to use! There's nothing you can do with your body that's going to show in the final product. Maybe that's all the more reason I used my body so much to get whatever noise or sounds out of it I could. When it was needed to keep the energy up I found myself almost running in place! It is very physical.
fun thinking idols
I'm also a big 'American Idol' fan. I think it's just great fun.
children shy
I was a very shy child.
ridiculous wet stinky
It was just wet, not stinky?
