As a woman, you listen to more female singers, like guys listen to more rock bands. So in that way, they influence you because you're trying to create an identity; you look to others to model.

I play- it's kind of like a slice-of-life, LA women in their forties, playing forty kind of what's their friendship like, and what's their life like and so I just play one of the four friends.
made difficult
It's incredibly, incredibly difficult to get a movie made.
fun thinking laughing
I think just because life is hard, it does seem fun to have a break and laugh about things, so I think in the end, my instincts go there.
thinking together matter
The fact of the matter is, if you have to have a process, I think, to figure out how to make everything work together, you just don't get that. But maybe there's a way to do it.
laughing world needs
We need comedies in the world! We need to laugh, it's all so hard.

I think that everything's hard now anyways, so you might as well do stuff that you love and believe in.

children character kids
As a parent, you have to figure out how to shape your kid's character. You want to have human beings who learn about good character. You have to be able to see your child with clarity, see the good side and the bad side of them, and work on the bad side and make them better so they fulfill their potential.

Sometimes I sing and dance around the house in my underwear. Doesn't make me Madonna. Never will.
mean impact parent
I can't imagine being a single parent or a single parent that doesn't have a lot of money. That's a big, huge impact on your life and your dynamic and everything - I mean, that's huge. It affects how much you have a break from just concentrating on just one other person in your life. It becomes so myopic that way, and more intense, probably.
