Over half the world menstruates at one time or another, but you'd never know it. Isn't that strange?

I get up around 7 a.m. That's very early for a stand-up comic. Then I'll have breakfast with my husband, the artist Al Ridenour, take my three dogs for a walk and commence with my work.

I love Wilco's "I'm the Man Who Loves You." Nels Cline has that weird guitar slide at the beginning and the song is whispered actually.

Comedy was all I ever wanted.

Sometimes the only way to deal with horrific things in life is through a dark sense of humor.

I think that all bodies are beautiful in millions of different ways but I get down on myself too!

When I was 14, I told my mother I was going to drop out of high school and go do stand-up comedy. All she said was 'Oh maybe it's better if you just die,' because it was killing her that I was doing this.
