Today I decided to try my hand at cooking up some sweet potato french fries.

I'm enjoying the fries as I write this, so I guess that's good. But at some point I'm going to have to clean the stove and sink. And I've got pin-hole burns all down the front of my... face and arm. So I've got work to do.

I'd see the publicity guy come on the set and I'd go hide in the rafters. The crew would be like, ‘I haven't seen him.' And then they'd leave and I'd go back to work. Because that's what's fun: the doing, not the talking.
