No. I don`t talk about the family. This is kind of an on-going thing that gets, honestly, to be kind of tiresome, only because, you know, you meet people in Boston and they say, `Boy, what`s it like to wake up with Jamie Lee Curtis?` Well, you know what? We`ve been married for 12 years, and we have kids, and it`s not like we`re living some bizarre life here. We go home and we wear sweatpants and the baby takes a dump and we change the diaper. I don`t mean to put you off here, but I just tend not to talk about it.
