Before "30 Rock" I was hard-pressed to pick a favorite TV working-woman role model that I'd want my girls to watch week in, week out. Sure, there are all those smart, edgy crime-fighting women on the CSI shows, but where are all the geeky girl writers/students turned smart women who literally run the show?
She's on NBC on Thursday nights. And here's Tina Fey on being a working mom in this week's Parade Magazine:
"The life of a working parent is constantly saying, 'This is impossible,' and then you just keep doing it."
"I think my generation has been slightly tricked in that you're trying to have it all. And sometimes your body will not let you wait as long as you want."
On her concern over her toddler daughter's affinity for Disney princesses:
"All that might creep back into our culture. That a girl would really aspire to be the Little Mermaid, a beautiful redhead with no legs who waits for her prince! Who literally gives up her voice!"
Love her!
I had Mary Tyler Moore. My girls have Tina Fey. Even better.
