Anybody else watch Daybreak on Netflix? I have to say, I really really liked it. I loved that they kept switching up the genre style for each episode. For those that haven’t seen it yet – it’s an after the apocalypse show, where only teens survive unchanged. So imagine if the whole world was high…

As a fat actor, I don’t like the concept of fat suits. You want a fat character? Hire a fat person. Everybody is always bitching about how many of us there are – surely, you can find a fat actor to play your fat character. Having said that, I myself had to wear a fat…

I love hugs. They are a goodness. I don’t know how not-fat people feel about fat hugs, but I know I love fat hugs. They envelop you with warmth and softness, but there is an inner strength there too. Like hugging a well padded tree. I am still struggling with learning to ask if hugs…

I am a fat old lady. I cannot (or am not willing) to put my body through the rigors I once enjoyed in my youth. But I have been in pain for 3 days now. You know what I did? I sat for 5 ½ hours. I had breakfast with a friend and it turned…

There is nothing quite like being onstage, in the middle of a scene/song, and suddenly from backstage, you hear a big crash of some sort. WTF? There is not a thing you can do about it. All you can do is wonder until you get offstage and can find out WTF is going on. I…

The first time my mother recognized that I was an adult was when she and my stepfather came to visit me in LA and I was driving through downtown LA, going from 110 South to 10 West. That interchange is not for the faint of heart. I heard my mom in the backseat whisper –…

I had to deal with one of our baby attorneys today. This fella is trying his hand at using the dictating equipment. I salute his bravery at trying to master this skill. Most of our baby attorneys don’t bother. And I am sure (okay, I am hoping) he’ll get better at it. At least this…

Learning lines. Ah, what a total pain in the ass. But obviously necessary. Everyone has their own best way to tackle this task. I type or write them out. Some people tape their cues, leaving space for the line. Some people need someone to run lines with them. Some people just read them over and…

I have spent the last week catching up on a couple favorite shows that have new episodes on Netflix –Grace and Frankie and Sex Education. I spend a lot of time, while I am watching Grace and Frankie, boggled by how great Jane Fonda still looks.  Actually both she and Lily Tomlin look pretty terrific.…
