Yes.

The same reason why I don't have a reason why I couldn't go to a dinner party.

You just don't have it in you.

Yes.

And the reality was you do.

So my oldest sister is 12 years older than me and kind of like almost a second mom.

And she's cooking Thanksgiving dinner and she's doing it at my house because we're going to host the family.

And I'm going on and on to her, like sort of bragging about all of the invitations and all of the wonderful things that are happening for me and going back and forth about, you know, literally, I think I'd been invited by the King of Monaco somewhere, like all kinds of crazy things.

Then in New York, they wanted me to do this and this and this.

I got invited to this party.

And my sister just stopped and looked at me because she knows me.

And she goes, Shonda, are you going to do any of these things?

And I remember feeling like shocked that she'd even asked that question.

I was like, absolutely not.

Like, there's no way.

And I had my reasons.

I was like, I'm a mom of three.

I have all these shows on television.

I don't have time for any of this.
