Remember a few months ago when we told you that Jane Lynch will be on The Simpsons? Sure you do. The episode airs this Sunday; in it, Jane plays Homer’s assistant (natch) who starts off real nice and helpful but is angling to take over his job (natch natch).

Speaking of Sunday funday, if you’re in the LA area, Jane will be reading from, and signing copies of, Happy Accidents at the very pretty Santa Monica Public Library. It starts at 2pm, though the library tells us to get there as early as possible (by 1pm, say) because it will definitely get crowded. And whatever our librarian tells us to do, we’re going to do.  Relatedly, the Dallas Voice has a nice Happy Accidents-related interview with Jane here.

And, finally, here’s a nice little audio interview with Jane, giving UCLA Bruins a nice little bit of advice about living in the present, being your own advocate (or, to quote Addison DeWitt, “We all come into this world with our little egos equipped with individual horns. If we don’t blow them, who else will?”), and finding a lifeline in good people around you.
