I'm late to the Emmy party, I know. Still, couldn't be more proud of the company I keep: Jessica, Kathy, Ryan… Watched "The Normal Heart" on a plane this weekend-- went from apologizing for the gay sex I unknowingly forced upon my row-mates, to unabashedly SOBBING. Sooooo good. Lest we forget my fellow NU alumni winners & host: Julia Louise-Dreyfus, Stephen Colbert, Seth Meyers... For my sake, let's hope birds of a feather flock together!!!

Late Saturday night, after my event in CT, I received the following email. I'm always so moved when someone's interested in my work PRE-Pepper… Because it's all me-- without the A-list names or bazillion dollar budget. Just what makes me laugh, or think, and can be created on a sad, little, Spanish teacher-salary. I received his email just in time…. and he drove into the night, 45 minutes back to where I was to pick up my DVDs.

Met nothing but crazy-cool, creative, talented, generous, super-fans at today's CT HorrorFest!

In case any of my east coast peeps missed the memo, and can steal away this weekend:

I interrupt my World Cup coverage to share this breaking news! Tony Rocco Vinton-Spatafora got me into a kitchen!!! Where we (he)... COOKED something! (He lured me in with cameras.) See it to believe it, right here on "Dish It Out!"

Throwback Thursday: Never so sad (or fat) as the day I moved back from Argentina. LA AMO, Y LA FELICITO!!!

Even on my laziest Halloween ever, (really, Naomi? Jersey & unrelated wig? WHO ARE YOU?!) I was still at least HINCHA ARGENTINAAAAAA!!!

FORÇA, CORAGEM, E CONFIANÇA, BRASIL! PODE, SIM!!

Paying for all that beef and beer I gorged on this holiday weekend.

ThrowbackThursday: Mi 1er partido de fútbol, en la cancha de Taaaaalleres ;)

If I didn't already drive a completely ridiculous, hot pink convertible...

Headed home… Or to prom.

With the usual suspects at Rhode Island's Terror Con.

Traffic sure is a b*tch in Boston.

We never learned about this in drama school:

Looking forward to a fun weekend back east at Terror Con! Folks in/around Providence/Boston: Don't be pinheads, come play with me! (It's a no-brainer!)

http://www.terrorcon.net

Trailer for a short film I shot which recently screened at Cannes. I play a murderous psychopath. Other than that, it's full of surprises!

THIS is why I've been MIA for weeks. Big thanks to my awesome crew, Marcus Folmar, Adam Neely, Anthony Sherritt, and Eric Jaffe for helping make this happen. Let's hope to work together on this again... WITH NBC!

Nice headline! (Good article too.)

Nice memento from my weekend at Crypticon Seattle:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ppsWT7Tzi-k

Went hard this weekend at Crypticon Seattle… Now I'm just about ready for her!

To my gay guy friends on Grindr: true love is just 2766 feet away! Go get 'em!!

Some gremlin tried to cock-block me and Zach Galligan tonight at Crypticon Seattle.

Woohoo! $200 in the first 15 minutes! This project is off to a good kickstart!

$%@#*&!!! My director & fellow co-stars of "Just Me and All of You" are headed to Cannes without me!!!

CT/NY/Boston: SAVE THE DATE!

Nice article in S.L.A.V.E. Magazine (Northwest Florida's local "Script, Lighting, Audio, Video, Editing" rag):

Just opened to a picture of myself in my alumni rag!

The advantage to EVERYONE having a podcast now is that I get to be a guest on ALL of them!

No, Donald Sterling, I will not "remove all black people from the Instagram," particularly when they're hands-down the most freakishly funny, scary-smart improvisers in town!

Back in the day, I'd blow my entire waitress/Red Bull girl/life drawing model/Spanish teacher-paycheck on headshot reproductions. Now I trade them for autographs. Not bragging, just saying. It's nice to not be 20 anymore!

Comedian (& fellow NU alum!) Brock Wilbur invited me onto his aptly named "Brock Party" podcast. Should be a fun listen! https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/brock-party/id658394180

Because fear does not take the summer off! "Terror Con;" Rhode Island Convention Center; June 7 & 8.

I am horrified (and a tad bit titillated) to learn there's a website (trying to) list my bra size. It's double-A, btw.

ATTN:  EMMY VOTERS!  SCROLL DOWN!!!

I remember when Ethan Hawke spoke to us theatre majors in the exact same hall where I spoke to theatre majors last night.  (Been hanging on to this purple dress, hoping for this very occasion for a while!)  Thanks to the dear friends that joined me last night, on this wonderfully fulfilling, full-circle journey!
