My Father Was And Is A Great Father. My Father Always Wanted To Do Stand-up. He Wanted To Be An Actor. But Instead He Did Two Jobs. He Did Customer Service At A Hospital And He Worked As A Waiter At Night. He Pretty Much Sacrificed Everything For His Daughters.

My Grandmother Taught Me That Accomplishments Meant Less Than What You Left Behind. I Started To Ask Myself What Impact My Comedy Would Have On People's Lives. And That Changed My Act. I Got Cleaner.

If It Wasn't For My Trainer - Who Comes Looking For Me Three Times A Week Before 7 A.m. - I Wouldn't Get My Butt Out Of Bed And Into The Gym. There Are Many Mornings When I Think About Faking A Sprained Ankle, But I Just Put It Out Of My Head And Make Myself Go.

I Have Hair That I Audition With, My Sitcom Hair Which Is A Curly Wig. I Have My Long Chic Hair That I Wear To My Son's School So They Know I'm Not Playing Around. I Always Tell People That My Husband Gets A Different Woman Every Night When I Come Home From 'the View.' Hair Makes You Feel A Certain Way, Like Putting A Power Suit On.
