Highlight of the year: The Supreme Court upholding President Obama's Affordable Healthcare bill.

Perfect Day: A queen size bed on the beach, with my favorite book, my favorite people, and all the diet coke in the world.

Theater urban legend: Those aren't urban legends; they're true.

Alter ego: You know that scene in Legally Blonde when Reese Witherspoon teaches them the bend and snap and then that rather large woman does that dance out of nowhere? Her.
