My name is Patrick Meighan, and I’m a husband, a father, a writer on the Fox animated sitcom “Family Guy”, and a member of the Unitarian Universalist Community Church of Santa Monica.

I was arrested at about 1 a.m. Wednesday morning with 291…

This makes me angry.

Being a parent is hard. It is a million times harder than the hardest thing you’ve ever done. You will doubt every decision, every choice, every opinion. You will live in fear you’re screwing up your kid with every move you make. You will not be perfect. You will fail. You will fight with your partner and snap at them. You will get angry over stupid things, like always having to pick up cereal and bananas off the floor. You will cry in the bathroom for hours at a time, for reasons that remain foggy. You will never sleep, even when you’re sleeping.

Being a parent is amazing. You will learn to use parts of your brain and guts and soul that never had to work before. You will love harder than ever before. You will learn to trust your instincts and choices and settle into yourself. You will make peace with not being perfect. You will respect and admire your partner in new ways. You will eat cereal and bananas off the floor. You will cry in public when you talk about your child, or while watching them do something as simple as clap their hands. You will never sleep, because being with your kid brings you so much joy you wish you could be awake for every second of their life.

I love Eleanor fiercely. I think she is a genius, a bright light, a perfect creature whose flaws I look forward to learning and loving. I could gush for paragraphs about how wonderful life is with her in it. But really it’s pretty simple: she kicks ass and there isn’t a day that goes by where I don’t feel thankful for her.

Happy first birthday, Pip.

Not that many of you are pregnant actresses, but I am so glad I stumbled upon this article today. After hearing from my reps that I wasn’t being seen because I was actually pregnant (even for pregnant roles) this made me feel a little more in control of my life and what being pregnant in this business means.

Make sure you take two minutes out of your day to send an e-mail to your representatives, this is quite important. http://americancensorship.org/

My wife Johanna and I have just completed our first trimester and can now officially announce that our evil spawn will enter this world on (or around) April 25th of next year.  I have to say, I’m pretty damn excited to be a Dad!

Appel-Parker baby!

Coffee Snobs

You know those pretentious assholes at high-end coffee shops? This is them.

Brand new Tricia & Johanna video!  

We love good coffee, but really can’t stand being talked down to when we order it, so the ladies wrote a really funny script about hipster baristas.  Johanna told me that some of the things in the script were actually said to her at various times.  Proof Bakery was nice enough to let us come in and shoot on a Monday when they were closed, and Mathew Rudenberg (Blue Mountain State’s DP) stepped in at the very last minute and made it look all purdy for us.

The video also features the always hilarious Eugene Cordero, June Diane Raphael (NTSF:SD:SUV::), Frankie Shaw (Blue Mountain State) and Bryce Johnson (Death Valley).  Give it a look and give it a reblog if you’ve ever dealt with people like this.

You know you wanna watch it.

Despite the heat I made some Fig preserves today. Our friends (Alex and Joe) have a house with a bunch of fig trees and they kindly dropped some off for me this morning. Thanks guys!
