I come home every weekend and I still can't believe I represent Las Vegas in Congress. It's such a kick.
I was a weekend drinker. . . I'd start on Saturday, end on Friday. . . thought I was controlling it. . . but I don't drink any more.

If I won a few billion in the lottery, I would create an institute where people who would like to die would come spend a weekend, a week, or a month in pleasure, under drugs perhaps, in order to disappear afterward, as if erased.
I have never in my life found myself in a situation where I've stopped work and said, 'Thank God it's Friday. ' But weekends are special even if your schedule is all over the place. Something tells you the weekend has arrived and you can indulge yourself a bit.
Both President Obama and former President George W. Bush were interviewed on 'Face the Nation' over the weekend. President Bush said there's a 50 percent chance his brother Jeb will run for president in 2016. Then he said, 'But there's an 80 percent chance he won't. '
It's not that your back hurts,. . You get these horrible, ice cream brain-freeze headaches. So I would go in on the weekends and get these things called blood patches, where they'd shoot blood into your spine. It was like running a marathon to get it done.
I'm terrible with my workout regime and following it strictly. I'm terrible with a healthy diet and following it strictly.

Stop doing things that waste time. Don't replace time with your family or things that you need to do. I needed to put together two fantasy teams this weekend because that's something I enjoy, but I did stop playing Nintendo Wii for hours on end.

Pretend like it's the weekend,. . . We could pretend it all the time.
When you love fashion, there is no weekend. Everything just blends together.
We just said, 'Okay, you're in the movie. Bring what you would bring for a three-day weekend and I hope you like the way you look in it because once you're on camera, that's your wardrobe. ' But it worked; it worked and we were very surprised.

The happy medium is television. And if you find a good suitor, you can do it for years. With movies, you roll the dice. If people don't show that weekend, you're doomed. TV allows you to percolate a little bit, and it gives you a chance for people to find it.
I experimented with drugs and I experimented with everything that little boys do - vandalism, throwing eggs at cars, breaking and entering schools and destroying a room.
