Writer and performer of the monologue,
“Life in a Marital Institution (20 Years of Monogamy in One Terrifying Hour),” which ran Off Broadway and at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe.
1. Someone once dared me to write motivational speeches for corporations when I graduated from college. I was suspicious of corporations, I had no motivation, and my boss demanded I study Goebbels, Hitler’s Minister of Propaganda. Which tells you a little bit about my boss.
2. The best gift I have ever received would be my two boys: endless fun.
3. When I was 15, I was sitting on a couch at a wedding reception in Paris, pleading with a 22-year-old Canadian blonde that sleeping with me would not be like sleeping with one of her pimply little brother’s 15-year-old friends.
4. Lamest advice I ever received _ “Here…” (From a Mephistophelean teenager smoking a joint in my house when I was in the second grade.)
5. Wish I had more time to play team sports.
6. This week my guilty pleasure has been eating cinnamon-raisin-custard snails from Gristede’s in the afternoons—instead of playing team sports.
7. On my bucket list is feeling complete forgiveness – of myself, of course; but also for all the people I have justifiably vilified over the years.
