Pictured: my sexual awaking. I didn’t understand what puberty was until I saw Prince.

I was privileged to have seen him live, at Coachella in 2008. He brought out The Time and Sheila E and I thought I had entered nirvana. Then he launched into Radiohead’s “Creep” and I just stood there, mouth wide open, doing that laugh/cry thing you get to do only a few times in your life. If the world had ended at…

This is a weird and super-noticeable problem with all levels of casting, even for the little non-union commercials I used to do. I…

I am due in June, and reading through this has me feeling lucky so far. Found some GREAT dark wash maternity jeans at goodwill, where I have made it a point to troll every time, long before I need them.
