They're really adult parties because I guess in L.A. is such. Everybody now has to go to every party, Katie. That's different. So when we were kids, it was like, ooh, like a big, like who's invited?

Now everybody's got to go to every party. Everybody gets a trophy. Yeah. Which means every weekend you just see the same parents and you sit around drinking beers at like 3 p.m. watching your children just like rip each other apart. And I got to say, I love it. My husband and I were talking about this. We were like, this is the dream.

We're just sitting around making small talk with like a set designer from Pasadena, having some, you know, hard seltzers, eating their home state tacos. I love it. But the Super Bowl thing is a big deal for me because I don't go to like late night drinking type parties. Except for like three times a year at the Super Bowl, the Combine and the draft, which are unfortunately in succession.

So it's like a very intense. It's like the closest thing in my life to like those Alabama sorority rush weeks where by the end my liver is like because I'm so unused to partying that hard.

Yeah, I grew up in a major house party high school culture. Not that I was invited to many of them.

Speaking of that, they're just here for the house. Once, one weekend, when I went to Washington, D.C. to be a presidential scholar— My parents went with me. And my brother famously threw like the biggest house party our town had ever seen at our house. And it was like... The kind of house party that people talk about for years, like da-da-da. And he—so my brother was a lot closer than me.

He took photos of everything in the house. He hired professional cleaners. So we come home, and it's like nothing has happened. So my parents come home from this, like, nerd thing I went to with me, and we're walking through the house, and my mom, sometimes she's just like, something's off. And she noticed like the smallest, tiniest difference. Something had been moved.

And my brother cracked immediately when she called him out on it.

This is my favorite part about adult parties. If I'm the organizer is watching people from different worlds speak to each other. And like, yeah, I enjoy that.

I have in the past. I'll get like a room at a bar. But we do house parties for me. A couple years ago, before I got pregnant, rager. Absolute rager.
