About Me

I am outrageously proud of my Wisconsin roots, and FAVRE'S BACK!!! However, the California temperatures beat the 40 below zero wind chill back home any day of the week. I am irritated by those who believe people from Wisconsin speak like the characters in the movie Fargo. It isn't even the same state!!!! I am a proud graduate of the University of Virginia -- WAHOOWA! And as my husband would say, "like everyone else in LA, I am an actor".
