Laughter Is The Best Medicine at Harvard Medical School

“What Does The Spleen Do”?

Laughter may be the best medicine, but aren’t you s’posed to get through Med School first? Has sleep-deprivation pushed these hip-hopping Harvard Med Students over the edge or is this some kinda Ivy League Extra Credit to FIND THE FUNNY?

If only my ER would take a hint and produce a Medical Musical… At least I’d book a gig on the Spleen-Screen!

Pilot Season Psychic Powers

who knew?

who knew?

Forget Acting!

I should be a PSYCHIC!

All of my Comedy Pilot Predictions came true!  Too bad I can’t predict what’s gonna happen in my own “career”, Ugh!

Congrats to all behind the shows that were picked up!  Can’t wait for you to come back from the Upfronts, so we can MOVE ON to– Read the rest of this entry »

ER Volunteer NIGHTMARE

O M G !
No one told me that part of my Volunteer duties is being a witness to

Someone else’s PELVIC EXAM!

Last night on my ER shift I’m minding my own business when the verrry attractive  Dr. A motions for me to come over to him, which at first I think is a good thing, until —

I realize it’s because he needs me to be with him in the exam room when his hand is up someone else’s Whooha!

So before I can say –

No way will I be that room, when you do THAT!

I’m in there.
Looking down.
Looking up.
Looking anywhere but you-know-where. Read the rest of this entry »

ACTORS: DIY

are you listening?

Just saw RUBY SPARKS – so honest, deep, true and a little tough when you’re not quite ready for it. The show-stopping risky scene toward the end made me go WHOA big time. Not surprisingly, Zoe Kazan wrote her great scene herself.  She wrote and produced this little Fox Searchlight gem with her BF Paul Dano, who starred in it with her. How ROMANTIC! How PROACTIVE! How GENIOUS!

Directing DESTINY –

Actors (especially YOUNG CREATIVE WOMEN Actors-turned-MULTI-HYPHENATES) have started putting their destiny into their own hands. It seems like it’s the only way to keep from being a puppet, waiting for someone to pull strings.

Next weekend Rashinda Jones’ CELESTE AND JESSE FOREVER  is being released. Jones co-wrote, produced and (incidentally) is starring in it – destiny in her own hands…

Krysten Ritter did it with LIFE HAPPENS.
Maybe we should all make our own —

  • LIVES HAPPEN
  • CAREERS HAPPEN
  • HAPPINESS HAPPEN.

If this is a trend,
I LIKE it.
I want to LEARN from it.
I want to TRY IT!

ER Nurses: FIND THE FUNNY

 

i’m listening…

Last night it was pretty quiet on my ER shift except for this Jersey Shore-ish family, “The LOUDS” who made a scene in the Hallways, in Triage, in Trauma — basically everywhere they felt they had an AUDIENCE!
Then —

SECURITY to Room 16 STAT!

—  and like eight security guards rush in to break things up.

But other than that, it was actually uneventful. So I took eavesdrop-notes (on my Post-its) because even though I think I’ll always remember the hospital’s conversational gems, I don’t always.

I don’t think I’m breeching PATIENT CONFIDENTIALITY (at least I hope not!) because I’m not naming any names. Read the rest of this entry »

20 More NEW YEAR’S EVE SUPERSTITIONS

 

if only I could affect the future

Last year I tried out a few New Year’s Superstitions (NOT all 20). If nothing else, I had a good laugh.  I opened all of the windows — let the old year escape, danced around a tree, and let my dirty locks flow through the air (oh yeah, I was a sight to behold!)

The Jury’s Still Out —

I have no idea if they worked or not, but things could be a lot worse! I’ve just researched 20 more and figure they’re worth trying. You never know… Read the rest of this entry »

AWKWARD.

A W K W A R D.  is my latest TV addiction!

high school humiliation


And on MTV – who knew? 

It’s about a girl who becomes popular for the worst reasons

OK, yeah – I know I know. So that’s partially why I “get” JENNA and (need to) learn from her as she “acts” calmer than she feels in the red face of disaster. But, even if we weren’t on an embarrassing parallel universe — if we’d been in high school together, we would’ve bonded.  And yeah, I can SO imagine Jenna living my life ten years from now (sorry, girlfriend but I’ll teach you how to modify the fugly outfit.) Yep. SOULMATES.

The writing’s smart and authentic. It’s kinda “My-So-Called-Life-ish“ — charmingly painful and painfully charming. I love that Jenna’s friends and frenemies aren’t cookie-cutterish. Like SADIE (short for “sadistic?”) –– I mean, she looks more Rosie O’Donnell than your typical high school she-devil, but was clearly trained in bitchery by Blair Waldorf!
