When Movie People Go Over Into Television, It's A Little Bit Of A Shock. It's Much Faster-paced. Everything Is Really Last-minute. You Won't Know Your Schedule For The Next Episode Until The Last Minute.

No, I'm A Horrible Singer, I'm Awful.

It's Been A Difficult Thing Because Some Great Opportunities Have Come And I've Just Been Holding My Breath And Praying... I'm Basically Gambling Hoping Something Will Come Along This Season And If Not, I Don't Know What The Future Holds.

So I Begged, Half Way Into Season Two, For Them To Let Me Cut My Hair.

I Think Essentially The Meaning Of Life Is Probably The Journey And Not Really Any One Thing Or An Outcome Or A Result. I Think It's Kinda The Process And I Think That If You Can Find Happiness In The Process Then Maybe That's It.

Meaning Of Life

When I Was Eight Years Old, Or I May Have Been Younger, My Aunt Picked Me Up And Threw Me In The Pool And I Didn't Know How To Swim. It Was Like, "conquer Your Fear And Just Get On With It." It Must Have Made An Impact On Me.

I Had Been Warned Not To Get On A Motorcycle, Sort Of. I Think There Is A Clause In Most General Basic Contracts To Keep Yourself In One Piece And Not Alter Your Looks Without Telling Them First.

I Miss The Wallflowers. Great Band. Wrote My First Fan Letter To Them. No Response.

Oh Heck Yeah, I Totally Would Love To Have A Phantom Dennis In Real Life.

I Really Wish I Could Sing So I Could Front A Band, Because That Would Be A Dream Come True, Totally. I Want To Sing. Can't Do It Though.

I Am A Single Mom And I'm The Breadwinner And I Have To Work And I Have To Do These Things And That's Just The Way It Is. I Don't Think My Son Even Knows Any Different.

I Have Insecurities About Being A Good Mom, Or Balancing My Career With Motherhood. All Of Those Are Very Strong, Very Real Obstacles. My Motto Is Just Unconsciously, And Maybe Now Consciously Because I'm Saying It, Is Sink Or Swim. I'm A Fighter.

I Wasn't Willing To Be A Victim. I Only Wanted To Survive, And I Only Wanted To Get Through.

Sure, I'd Take The Responsibility Of Queen Any Day.

I Don't Mind Playing The Same Character, But If It's Not Well Done, Then I'm Not Interested.

Let Me Tell You, Hitting 40 Is Not Fun.

I Don't Think I've Ever Really Pursued Telling My Story, But I Think Things Come To You At The Right Time.

Most Of The Time I Meet My Trainer At The Gym And We Do A Lot Of Everything: Weights Circuit With Cardio, Football Drills, Sprinting With Weights On The Treadmill.

I Don't Think That They Know Fully What's Happening With Miss Match So Therefore I Don't Know How Many More If Any, If The Show's Even Gonna Keep Going.

Always Trust Your Gut And Your Intuition Will Steer You Right, Every Time.

Nothing Beats A Really Rough Massage. I Really Hate A Man Who Goes All Limp When He's Doing A Massage. Who Needs A Soft Massage? Just Get In There And Rub Me Hard Or Don't Bother.

I Wrapped That Monday And Started On My Third Episode For Miss Match On Thursday Of That Same Week And We Just Wrapped Yesterday Cause It Was Split Over The Holiday.

My Heart Is In Television, Just Because It's Been So Good To Me.

I'm A Mixed Breed And Hope To Live Longer Because Of It.

Sometimes Decisions Get Made And It Ends Up Being God Doing For You What You Couldn't Do For Yourself.

When You Gain 50 Pounds During Pregnancy Like I Did, You Fear That You'll Never Get Back In Shape

I Can Keep My Head Together In A Crisis.

So, I'm Happy To Do That Because It's A Wonderful Working Relationship But I Will Be Going Out For Pilot Season For Half Hour Work And That's The Gamble I'm Taking.

This Is Funny Because I Just Had A Job Over The Summer For Vh1, A Project I Did Called Strange Frequency Where I Got To Play A Goth Rock Band Singer.

Today My Son And I Went For A Stroll And Saw The Sea Lions And Watched The Sunset And Played Ball In The Park With Our Dog.

I Had My Heart Set On Becoming An English Teacher, But Stumbled Into Acting After Meeting A Theatrical Agent In My Dad's Restaurant In San Diego.

You Can Take The Girl Out Of Vegas, But You Can't Take The Vegas Out Of The Girl.

When I Was First Starting Out, And I Was Less Established, I Was Really Concerned About Being Typecast.

Television Is My Home. It's A Special Breed Of Person That Can Do Nine Months On And Three Months Off, With 22 Episodes Of One-hour Shows. It's Very Hard Work. It Can Be A Grind. It's Not A Grind For Me. I Relish In That.

There Are So Many Heroes Just Walking Around In Everyday Life. It Blows Me Away.

There's A Pretty Good Chance That You're Going To Go Down When You're On A Motorcycle Or If You're Sky Diving Or Whatever, But That Happened Before I Even Got This Job, And I Haven't Sky Dived Since.

I've Had The Joy Of Working On Critically Acclaimed Shows, But Unfortunately, Those Shows Aren't Always In The Golden Globe Or Emmy Categories, Which Bums Me Out Because They Are Really Good, Quality Shows.

My Ex-husband And I, Even Though We're Not Together, We Are 100 Percent Together In Raising Our Kid. We Communicate A Lot And Where I Drop The Ball And Need Him To Pick It Up Or Vice Versa, He's There.
