The "Today" show holiday party is Thursday afternoon and you know what that means?
Savulich, Andrew
Office parties often bring out the wild side for some people.
The "Today" show holiday party is Thursday afternoon and you know what that means? Office party shenanigans. While we've been drinking all day — hello, it's part of our job! — our colleagues really let loose before their early bedtimes. But if you've got an office party of your own, don't forget you've got to see those people the next morning. And whatever you do, don't sit on your bosses' lap. It never ends well.
HK : Natalie ( Morales ) is always the most fun at our party. You want to be next to NatMo at a holiday party because she lets her freak flag fly and dances the entire time. But it's only funny because our Natalie is always so right-on, super smart, dresses perfectly.
KLG : Our Little Miss Perfect.
HK : Everything's perfect. And then…
KLG : You get one drink in her, just one glass of wine.
HK : And all you want to do is dance with her! It's like her twin sister comes to the party. And we've got to shout out our girl ("Today" PR maven) Megan Kopf Stackhouse, who puts the whole event together. It's amazing, with a theme, special names for the cocktails, cute menus. Girl knows how to throw a party. It's a big thing, the entire staff, camera guys, crew, hundreds of people.

Time to get down at your holiday party just like “Today” host Natalie Morales will be doing on Thursday.
And a word of advice for those of you hitting the holiday party circuit with your co-workers:
KLG : Wear underwear so you'll have something to take off.
HK : You're so sick.
KLG : Don't sit on your boss's lap.
HK : That's a no-no. We've done that.
KLG : Unless you want to get on the unemployment line, first thing of the year.
