I'm Empathetic To A Fault.

When Veronica Mars Was Canceled, The Following Season Of Pilots For The Cw Had Been Announced, And One Was Gossip Girl. I Read It, And I Knew I Was Sort Of Old To Play Any Of The Kids. I Called Dawn Ostroff -- Who Was The Head Of The Cw At The Time -- And Said, 'hey, I Did So Much Narration On Veronica Mars, Can I Narrate This Show? And She Said, 'hey, That's A Very Good Idea.' They Knew I Had A Younger Voice, They Liked Me And They Knew I'd Show Up For Work, And I Guess That Was All I Really Needed. It Was So Clear To Me How Sassy And Catty She Needed To Be.

Part Of My Becoming A Vegetarian Was That I Would Look At My Burger, Then Look At My Dogs, And I Wasn't Able To See A Difference.

I'm Carded For R-rated Movies. And I Get Talked Down To A Lot. When I Try To Go Rent A Car Or Buy An Airplane Ticket Or Other Stuff Adults Do, I Get "okaaaaaay, Honey." I Remember When I Was 18, Getting Crayons In A Restaurant.

The Only Thing I Consciously Avoid Is Playing The Victim. I Think Women Are Portrayed As The Victim In So Many Things, And I Really Like Women With Strength - Although I Feel Now I May Have Gone Overboard By Playing So Many Strong, Sassy Women.

I Don't Like Staying In Hotels. I Like To Be In My Own Bed. San Diego As A City Is Really Awesome. The Only Hard Part Of It For Me Is That I'm Away From My Family And My House. But As Far As Shooting Down There, We Get Amazing Locations, And The Crew Is Really, Really Stellar Down There. They Are Really Fun.
