The holiday season is a great time to visit family. However, after three hours, the little visiting session gets old and I'm ready to peace. Here is the problem - I want a quick exit, but I cannot get away before the long arduous process of goodbyes begins.
Though I have spent time catching up with the relatives (at least the ones I can stand), now I must retrace my steps for a personalized goodbye. Just another stupid societal ritual that we feel compelled to follow or else ... Or else what? We get labeled as being one of those adults with bad manners whose parents didn't teach us proper etiquette. Hey, I can live with that.
Well, I say enough is enough. Forget about all that nonsense. When it's time to go, wave a hand in the air and say one all encompassing goodbye. Then peace out and be on your merry way. If not, you will waste countless time attempting to escape from a situation that reached its expiration date hours before.
***or as my British friend Sophie would say: If you dont get your arse in gear, you will piss away your time trying to run away from something that has had AIDS for hours.
