character daughter speaking stop struggled
I struggled with the idea that this character, the parent, would ... stop speaking to her daughter and not make more of an effort.
basic ladies level mean
One of the things I like about the show is it redefines the idea of what it is to be a mother, which at its most basic level is to take care of a child. It doesn't mean you have to look like the ladies in the Lysol commercials.
ebay fake love talk wonderful
I just really love my fake sisters, Mandy and Piper. We've had a really wonderful time. We talk about our eBay purchases.
references somebody
All my references are 50 years old-when somebody shot J.R., you know? Oh my god, I'm 100!
mean practice ideas
That's the thing that always stuck out to me - the idea that quantity becomes quality. I always took it to mean if you do anything enough, if you keep putting effort in, eventually something will happen, with or without you. You don't have to have faith when you start out, you just have to dedicate yourself to practice as if you have it.
tv-shows tvs shows
All TV shows are basically part of the same storyline.
years shots knows
All my references are 50 years old-when somebody shot J.R., you know? Oh my god, I'm 100!
growing-up children parent
Growing up an only child with a single parent is probably why I'm an actor.
cute idols goal
I definitely wanted to be an actor. I didn't want to be on TV, I didn't want to be famous, I didn't want to be anyone in particular; I just wanted to do it. I see young people now who look at magazines, or American Idol and their goal is to have that lifestyle - to have good handbags, or go out with cute guys from shows, or whatever. But I definitely wanted to be an actor.
moving thinking work-out
Moving. Someone said this to me a long time ago, it's bhuddist saying, I think: 'There is no wasted effort'.
girl wife suffering
The parts for women, you're either like the quietly suffering wife or the wild girl.
jobs moving levels
If I had a normal job and had been moving up, I'd be management level now.
jobs reality acting
It's great to have an acting job in the age of Reality TV.
christmas dad party
Like my dad, I have a Christmas party most years. I like to celebrate and see as many people as possible.
