You can go because you and I have that thing to do... Remember? The thing?
Or you could fake the plague....
In all honesty there are two real ways to look at this, you can either be perfectly honest and just tell people that you don't want to go, or you can suck it up because life is full of stuff that you do for political type reasons...
Ah! An alien invasion! Oh oh oh, the second coming of the Christ perhaps? Or you have just been struck by lightning! OR perhaps the best reason of them all...... for some reason Live Journal does not like my answer and I am unable to post it *sigh* I swear to you it was really good!!!
There's the lame, "family emergency" which always seems to work because if they called you on it and it's true, they'll feel like crap.
Then, theres: "I'm sorry, I've recently turned into a nympho and I can't leave the house because I'm afraid of embarrassing myself in public."
Ooooorrr...: "If Brian and I double date with you two, I'm afraid that your boyfriend will realize how great I am and dump you for me."
And then, the ever popular: "I'm clairvoyant, and I've lost my gloves, so I can't go out for fear of what I might discover."
Those are about the most outrageous things I can come up with off the top of my head. I'm sure there'll be more interesting things that come to me later in the middle of the night. Good luck with that. And, think of it this way...If you do it once, you might never have to do it again, yeah?
