“Unfortunately, this past birthday, my son was up the entire night before, very sick with that horrible - I think it was called the Norovirus or whatever the hell that was that was going around. So I got it. And then my husband [Paul Scheer] got it. We were both fighting it because he had planned this whole day for me, and we were both pretending it wasn't happening.

It's how you play what life gives you that determines your joy and shine.”

It'll just be another place where we're trying to understand why we exist at all.”
