Support the Arts : )
The play I wrote with my friend Phil Wells and is being performed by a lot of great people (mostly from our group SidViscous!) has a Kickstarter campaign. It is pretty costly to put up a play.

Buzzfeed posted this list and I’m really tickled and excited to be included with some of my favorite comedians. This is nice thing for a Sunday.
go Kurt!
also, I love Chris Lilley!
and John Mullaney.
basically, great list.
i don’t write this post as a “wah wah why me?” sort of thing. more of a, “hey, you have no idea the remarks that you might make that can affect someone for the rest of their lives” sort of thing.
when i was in the 5th grade, a boy told me i was too fat to wear bodysuits. i was devastated, because i wore them a lot (with vests and crimped hair). i even got one for...
B-Day Gift?
hi friends and family,
my birthday is coming up, and i wouldn’t normally ask for a gift because i’m an adult who should be able to afford things, but what about this:
if 350 people pitch in a single $1…I could get a gift certificate to take an improv class. i really want to take Advanced Harold at UCB and every time one pops up that i can fit in my schedule, i can’t...

i’m gonna recycle my resolution from the past 5 years: get an agent.
to be fair, it’s not entirely in my control. i can only be myself and hope that someone likes me enough to want to represent me. what is in my control is not turning into a total weirdo who forgets how to act every time she meets an agent.
i’m also gonna start submitting this as my reel:

late night in NY
in an effort to kill time on my long-ass train ride home tonight (at 2am) i’d like to write about my terrible night.
spent a brief moment at a popular improv bar where i knew no one and couldn’t get a beer. (well, i knew the guy i came to see who was in town from LA) so after an awkward 30minutes of standing around , i decided to leave there to meet my friend that is visiting from...

my christmas this year
christmas was so fun this year. christmas eve was spent with my roommates/good friends, Tyler and Dan. i made a sort of edible casserole while listening to christmas music. dinner was followed by lots of drinking and Home Alone 2. a little past midnight, Dan-a Clause came out with a big red bag with even more presents to add to the tree! (secret: most of them were for him from him). the...
