continue fortunate job knows love men next prepare
I'm very, very fortunate to be in the job that I'm in, and I would love for it to continue forever, but it won't. I have to financially and emotionally prepare for the day that 'Mad Men' will go away, because who knows what my next job is going to be?
board cocktail couple dinner eclectic event game happened history inspired listen middle recipe split
I listen to a lot of podcasts, which are split down the middle between comedy and board game podcasts, and a couple of eclectic ones like 'The Dinner Party' from NPR, where they take an event that happened that week in history and give you a cocktail recipe inspired by it.
men thinking mad
Before 'Mad Men,' I definitely had very dry spells and I know what those feel like, and I don't think that ever leaves you as an actor.
fashion long aim
I only aim for fashion that's long dead.
simple hands balance
I can juggle, not well... I can balance a broom on my chin. I can do very simple carny tricks, a little sleight of hand with cards and coins.
envelopes avenues
After 'Urinetown,' 'Avenue Q' and now 'Mormon,' is there an envelope remaining to be pushed?
practice acting fatherhood
I've certainly had less practice at fatherhood than I have at acting, but in fatherhood, at least my failures are private!
games trends boards
I have an RSS reader, Feeddler. I mostly subscribe to board game blogs - they have reviews of new games and discussions about trends. It's straight-up dork talk.
eye games wife
The amount of times my wife has rolled her eyes at board games is impossible to count.
games people way
Gaming has been a great way to get to know people. That's part of what I love about games, that they are social.
games nerd extracurricular-activities
I'm a bit of a nerd, and my extracurricular activity is nerd games.
new-york jobs character
I don't know if it's the sunshine, or the fact that I actually have a job, but I do like L.A. a lot. In New York, it can be gray and rainy and cold, and you still don't have any money, and you feel like a bad Dickens character.
class study social
My only foray into anything stock-market-related was in my eighth grade social studies class. I have steered clear ever since.
phones topics obsolete
Im pretty quick to delete something off of my phone if its become obsolete. And things like RSS readers have made life easier - all of the headlines are going to be related to a topic Im interested in.
