—Peter Farrelly, 2011


When Jason Sudeikis was asked if he could think of three words to describe Susan’s acting debut in The Farrelly Bros. Hall Pass, Jason said ” Why, I can think of FOUR words!”  And went on to say “Wonderful. Effortless. Surprising. And, wonderful again.”

In Nashville writing a super snowy sparkly silvery Christmas song with Chysallis writer Victoria Banks. Love it! Twizzlers helping energy level.

On music row at Big Machine Records with big deal and fun friend Allison Jones. Her corner office has the ghosts of the coolest songs ever written. Absorbing it by quietly licking the wallpaper. Tastes like chicken.

In Nashville hanging with Patricia Wittmer from Chysallis and going to her songwriters showcase tonight. I love that Nashville has statues of guitars everywhere. Nicer if hot chocolate came pouring out of them (but only in the winter months).
