I Haven't Been Offered A Part That Truly Inspires Me To Take Time Off, Though.

If I Was Having A Bad Day, Or If Something Was Really Getting Me Down -- Boy Troubles, Whatever -- I Wanted To Go Out And Get A New Piercing. It Was Definitely A Release For Me.

I Have A Collection Of Burlesque Books At Home That I've Had For Years. I've Always Been Intrigued And Fascinated With The Topic, The Beauty And The Art Of It And The Comedic Value Of It.
