“Are you asking me to make the decision? Because I definitely will if you don’t.”

“Well, I was learning towards the pizza and no pants, but if you’ve got a vote, I guess.”

“I’m all for celebrating. I’m thinking tequila shots, techno music, and heels too tall to walk in or all-meat cheese stuffed crust pizza and pajamas. Tough choices.”

“You’ve had years of acting experience, and it’s basically a glorified job interview. It’ll be easy for you.”

“Here’s hoping. This week a meeting with an agent, next month, I’m a star.”

“I’m proud to say I’ve never had that opportunity.”

“I want to make sure that I never do. I’m hoping it goes great. I could really use this.”

“And it’s a logical fear to have. I hear too many horror stories like that. Plus, local commercials are the worst, and is anyone ever proud to be a part of them, or is that just a myth?”

“I don’t even think the people that work there want to be part of them to be perfectly honest, that’s the worst part. No, I’m going to be really, really careful. I’m fully aware so all I can do is hope for the best. Thanks for the advice though, I really appreciate it.”

“You’re right, that is exciting! I hope it goes well for you. I think the only form of advice I could offer you is to refrain from signing anything without reading it first.”

“Thank you! That’s my fear actually. That I’ll get incredibly excited and just sign away my life and I’ll end up doing mattress store commercials for the rest of my days. It’s a recurring nightmare.”

“You don’t work as an actress full-time?”

“You really have to stop thanking me, it’s really nothing. I’m glad that Nic’s keeping you entertained. He’s a sweetheart.”

“Are you nuts? People wait and work for so long to be able to get to this point. He’s more than a sweetheart. He’s my best friend, and he puts up with me better than anyone else.”

“As long as you keep it like you normally are. Don’t worry about it, you deserve it. That’s good, hopefully your days will be a little bit more fun after today.”

“Thank you. I seriously can’t say that enough. Well, I mean.. my days are pretty fun at the store. I like spending time with Nic. He’s basically the reason that I’m there.”

“It’s not a problem! Just stay calm, and you’ll do great. Now tell me, how’re things at the bookstore?”

“I can’t stay calm. It’s not in my nature. I’m really so grateful. This is wonderful. They’re going pretty well, I suppose. Nothing too interesting to report.”
