Jill's Blurbs

About me:
I'm a stand-up comedienne and actress. I like glitter and cookies and hate coffee and boredom.

Also once I tried to crochet a skirt but it ended up weighing like 18 pounds and I could never wear it.

For now, you can check out my material and show schedule at http://jilltwiss.blogspot.com

Who I'd like to meet:
People with cake. Chocolate, ideally.
