Carrie Preston & Michael Emerson Make Sunday a Day of Leisure

Posted on the 04 March 2014 by Thevault @The_Vault

True Blood’s Carrie Preston and her hubby and actor Michael Emerson, were interviewed recently by the New York Times. The couple live with their rescue dog, Chumley, 4, near Columbus Circle in New York City. Carrie and Michael take getting noticed everywhere in their stride, even on Sunday, which they designate as a day of leisure, reserved for meandering and cultural events.

Michael explains in the interview that Sunday is the most domestic day of the week for the couple.

It’s the day when they feel the least pressure to get anything done. They get up fairly late, I suppose, around 9 o’clock and throw open the shades that make the room dark and make the bed. We’re like a synchronized team. We each have a shade to raise.

Then we divide forces. Carrie gives Chumley his morning walk and I prepare the breakfast. Frankly, she’s sharper in the morning and I’m probably the better cook, so it makes sense. Plus, that relieves her of having to do the late-night walk, which is maybe a little more sinister. I make kind of a heavy, farmer’s, protein breakfast. Bacon and eggs, that kind of thing. She used to join me in that, but lately she’s making these green smoothies.

Then we take care of the paperwork, or I should say the electronic work. I may read the paper for a bit while she starts on the computer. Then I’ll join her and I’ll get my laptop out and try to answer correspondence and get a handle on the week to come.

Around noon, we’re still in our jammies, and that seems wrong somehow, so we need to get crackin’ and someone needs to shower first and then we get out of the house. She usually has more organized activities than I: a get-together with lady friends, or a rehearsal or a reading, or a meeting about one of her many films or TV projects. I dawdle longer.
