I still think about the letter you asked me to write. It nags at me, even though you're gone and there's no one to give it to anymore.

It's all still there, like a movie I can watch when I want to. Which is never.

I'm five-eight, and with heels, I'm six foot, so people are like. 'Whoa, Amazon!' People are a wee taken aback by that 'cause I think people expect me to be small.

I love creating characters that are ridiculous and flawed. To me, the most important thing about comedy is the joy it can bring to the performers and the audience alike.
