I worked at restaurants and coffee shops and babysitting and just whatever I could do to make money.

I really wanted to, but I just didn't understand how people became comedians. I kind of thought it was something you were born into. And so I wanted to be a veterinarian or an architect. I wanted to be in a band, and for some reason I could understand how you could be in a band because I had guitars and all my friends played music. Comedy was a secret want, but it wasn't anything I pursued.

I was really into music. I started playing guitar also when I was nine. I wanted to be in the Beatles, even though John Lennon died the year I got a guitar and the Beatles broke up before I was born.

I always wonder, aside from even my name, what if my parents never split up? What if my mother never died? It swirls in my head all the time.

I talk about airplanes and things like that while my scars are on clear view.

Not many people have had as much bad luck as I have, but not many people have had as much good luck, either.

I think every person and place is interesting, and there's an interesting story behind every door.
