There are few things in life that give me true, honest to goodness anxiety. 1 - haven't to pray in church. 2 - having to play Cranium (not a lie) and 3 - a work Christmas party.
Why oh why would a work Christmas party give me anxiety? Well, imagine you are single and you get an email with this line in it in November:
Please RSVP no later than December 1st stating if you will be attending and the name of your guest.
I bolded the part that gives me anxiety. Seriously, it's kind of the worst thing to have to deal with. The anxiety of bringing a date to a work function is almost more than I can handle.
And so this year I decided that I would attend the party alone. I am pretty sure this is the best decision I made in 2009. I mean, Agency X went snow tubing for our party. And we all know, I am no snow bunny. I looked ridiculous. I had make-up smeared down my face and my hair was matted to my head. Clearly, I was the most attractive employee Agency X has. I think they are very happy that they hired me.
And now, if I can figure out how to not ever play Cranium again, I will consider my life complete.

Guaranteed that your called to say the prayer in church in the next few weeks...
Oh my goodness, I'm so glad to learn there are others who hate Cranium too. Worst game ever.
