Let's be honest here – after all the office parties, holiday get-togethers, and New Year's Eve benders, I think the last thing any of us wants to do is attend yet another celebration. With all the noise... and the crowds... and the expensive gifts to give, it's a wonder why we attend any holiday parties. But no matter the reason for all that holiday cheer, I think it is probably safe to assume that we would all like a little time off from the party scene. (If not for our own mental healthy, than certainly for the health of our wallets and livers...) And so in an attempt to help you avoid that next major shindig, allow me to offer you a few helpful excuses that should help you weasel your way out of that next big party.
I'm sorry, but I cannot attend your party because...
- I have to take my pet chihuahua to the taxidermist that day.
- I'm feeling a case of the hiccups coming on.
- I have to take my bicycle into the repair shop this afternoon. I hit a pigeon this morning...
- I have to get back home. I'm expecting a call from my parole officer.
- My psychic told me to avoid your crab dip.
- I caught mono from your spouse during your last party.
