Chemotherapy is brutal. The goal is pretty much to kill everything in your body without killing you.
Comedy is like music, and the way to make the best music is to have skilled musicians in your band.
I have friends who have no choice; they came from whatever town, they didn't have anybody in entertainment and they just knew they wanted to act and they did it.
Auditioning is the worst.
Ads featuring real women and real beauty are such a necessary component to offset the potentially dangerous programming out there for little girls.
I think every girl has that a guy she has trouble letting go of.
My parents are the coolest of the cool on every single level, and it's because they have a deep appreciation for every moment of their lives.
I had a nickname in junior high, and I'm loathe to say this: 'potato lady.'

I'm generally a pretty friendly person.

People still go to Comic-Con because they love comics.
My activities tend to revolve around crossword puzzles, reading and playing piano and games with my friends.
