I don't enjoy going to a very big wedding or a party or a huge gathering where there are lots of people. I enjoy small groups.

We all went to Kelsey's wedding, and yeah, we go to parties. We also go to each other's house. A group of us got together over at Kelsey's and just read through some plays just for the fun of it. That may not be everyone's idea of a good time, but we had a good time.
