It’s gauche. Not gouache.

It’s more that those were unsuccessful shows that the former president or whomever was fired for promoting.

My best friend is related to her. I hate her so much.

You have excellent taste in beans

I never noticed, but yes. Same face.

Yeah, when it was clear that we were going to have to move to Utah, I told my husband it was only happening if we were in Salt Lake. His business partner kept pushing Bountiful, and I was just like, NEVER.

I’m in Salt Lake City. Downtown even. But it is still way more of a thing here than it was in L.A. I shudder to think what it would be like anywhere else in this state.

I know a woman whose three kids look so wildly different from each other that strangers used to ask her if they had the same father.

I am in an interracial marriage. When I was in L.A. I forgot about it 99% of the time. Now that I am in Utah, it is more of a thing. Also now that my son is getting older, it is harder to forget that he is biracial.

HBO is having a free preview weekend, or you can sign up for a free trial of HBO Go if you really want to watch it.

I remember leaving the theater and my friend saying she thought he was gross and she wanted to comb his hair the whole movie, and I was like, Yeah, I want to comb my fingers through his hair while I make out with him...

I am L.A. born and bred and had to move out of state and I am totally lost without good tacos.

You’re supposed to just add Tapatio to your chips. The student store at my high school kept huge bottles out for this exact purpose.

Oh my gosh, the bathroom lines at Broadway shows. I nearly pissed myself at The Producers...

I was in Europe (traveling, so in different countries and cities) during the 2004 election, and a lot of people were pretty concerned with that one. More than a few people told me they thought they should get a vote.

Yeah, Judy Chu! She was my Congresswoman before I moved, and my State Senator for a long time before that. She was always really engaged int he community, which I liked.
