I'm definitely not down for stress. The problem is that if the people that I love were sticking around and being like, 'No, we gotta deal with this,' I'd be like, 'Oh shoot, alright, let's face this,' because I'd be too scared of leaving anybody behind.
The whole world of gaming really opened up to me when I took on this part. My nephews lost their minds when they found out that I had gotten this job and I hadn't heard of [the game].
In many settings, being vulnerable or sensitive ... can be deemed as weak and it was definitely a hard experience through different stages in life. I feel profound gratitude to be doing something that I love to do.
It was obviously a sad anniversary for most of my adult life and for my family's life. I don't think I realized [the SNL date] until there was kind of, like, a post-it note announcement.
