The quirky comedienne and powerhouse behind The Office turns 33 today! I love love love this woman for her unabashed humor, hilarious advice and no holds barred personality that she’s simply a-okay with sharing to the world. If you haven’t read her book, Is Everybody Hanging Out Without Me?, it’s a quick read that covers her childhood and present career with the humble yet absurd tone she has grown to perfect. Her chapter on romantic comedies is a winner on its own.

Kaling already has much to celebrate – in May, she was given the greenlight from FOX to write her own new comedy series, now titled The Mindy Project, about a single gynecologist. Here is a promotional shot for her show, due this Fall!

Hahahaha. Great quotes. I want to read her book now! And I’m psyched for her new show which I didn’t know about. I loved her in The Office.

Omg, I love her. I’ve been wanting to read her book forever! (too bad my library doesn’t have it
).

@loving_emerald@xanga - I, too, am a library fiend! I was waitlisted for her book for over a month (Tina Fey’s as well) but it was well worth it. You should request it! I’m always requesting new books before their release dates and they are often fulfilled.

The thing about lipglass may be my new motto for life.

I read her book, it’s pretty funny. Odd that it appealed to me, because I’ve never seen her in any shows.
