To the "question" people:

I know the world is a big, strange, wonderful place. I know that there are so many things to know and learn about. I know that we can only grow and expand our minds by seeking knowledge from unexpected places.

This said, I am not that place.

I might look like a font of information, especially with my glasses on. I'm a smart girl. I read a lot. I've been here awhile and have picked up a few things along the way. I'm happy to tell you the things you should know.

Not 10 times in rapid succession.
Not for a straight 8 hours.
And I really have no interest in walking you through what you "might" do in a hypothetical situation. Don't make up questions just so I can answer them! I don't want to!

FURTHERMORE, do not ask me random questions about what you see on my computer screen! If it's something I want to discuss with you, trust me, I will.

And please don't ask what it's like to "keep plugging away" at an acting career. It's depressing. Thinking about it depresses me. In fact in order to keep at it, I need to block out how much like running headlong into walls it truly is. Don't remind me. Don't tell me about a scene you saw in the movie "A Star Is Born" where the lead girl tries to get a job only to be told she's got about a one in 10-million shot but she sticks her plucky little chin out and says something vapid like, "I'm going to be that one!" and then marches herself out of the studio and DON'T TELL ME THAT! I know that! I know how many people there are trying to do the same thing I am! I'm ignoring them. Thinking about them scares me and if there's one thing I don't need, it's fear. And while I'm not one for blind optimism, fear's not my thing either.

I'm not as angry as I sound right now. I'm just frustrated.

Question people...
