Being an actor on a movie set is like going to the playground at recess.
Meaning of the quote
Being an actor on a movie set is like going to the playground at recess. This means that acting in a movie is a lot of fun, just like playing at recess. Actors get to pretend, explore, and have a good time, similar to how kids play and have fun on the playground. It's a job, but it's also an opportunity to be creative and enjoy themselves, just like at recess.

I have some close friends I keep in touch with. I knit. I watch a little too much TV. I ski, if the weather’s right for that. If I can find a group of buddies, I go rock climbing.
