“Well, right now it’s that I wear glasses. I was a nerd through my whole elementary school years. As soon as I got into high school, I was a swan. I was finally spreading my wings and they’re like, ‘Here are your glasses,’ and I was like, ‘No thank you.’ So I put contacts on from that age forward. No one else but my husband has seen me with my glasses, so now I have to wear my glasses when I go to set, so that makes me feel a little nerdier than I used to.”
Wally Kurth (Ned, GH; Justin, DAYS)
“Probably that I do crossword puzzles. I started doing them when I was in New York; all the actors were like, ‘You’ve got to do crossword puzzles.’ I started with The New York Times. My favorite is in New York magazine; I still get it delivered, first and foremost, for the crossword puzzle. I even wear a head lamp when I do them, but I’m not sure if that’s nerdy. It’s practical!”
