For The Non-Believers...

While doing google searches on every person and place in my past, two natural entries were "Jennifer Garner" and "Timberlake Playhouse". Here is a snippet of an interview between Jen and Carson Daley (Tool).

Jennifer: I was an intern.
Carson: Yeah, where were you an intern?
Jennifer: I was an intern at theaters all over the country but Umm I was an intern this one summer at Timberlake Playhouse in Mount Carol, Illinois.
Carson: Right.
Jennifer: It's like this non-equity, horrible, little theater.
Carson: That's alright. And what kinda things did you have to do? Were they horrible?
Jennifer: Umm I built all the sets...Like not me personally, but a group of us built the sets. We made the costumes. We sold the tickets... We did the fast changes. It was like one of those total grunt summers that while you're doing it, it sucks, but when you look back you're so glad you did it, you know.
Carson: Well it's a great way in though?
Jennifer: I know. Everybody should be an intern.

Yeah, Jen, I guess I don't remember you building the sets so much as I just remember you snoring. And I believe the one doing the quick changes was actually...let's see...who was that girl?...Oh yeah it was ME. I was the one that had to deal with the bulimic dancer and the thirty second quick change and the velcro wedding dress in the middle of the Dream Ballet in Oklahoma (which, by the way, is the most random piece of theatre ever written) or was that a different year? They all blend together. I was at Timberlake every summer between the ages of 10 and 16. My parents were married there. Jennifer Garner told Carson Daley (Tool) that it's a horrible place. These are the reasons I giggle when Jennifer Garner does silly things like trip at the Oscars and marry Ben Affleck. Too bad she didn't mention awesome cabin number 6 and her super cool roomates.

Garner: Why do you have all those stuffed animals?
Brooke: Um, because I'm a kid.
Garner: Oh. Whatever.
