I have to see family I don’t want to see tomorrow, I’m having a 0% beer to chill out. How does that work ? 😂
Discussion
Focus on small talk and laugh off everything else. Have 13% or more beer 😂
Add vodka 🤣
Also, remember that you have to pop out to do that thing that you forgot to do, just as they arrive.
No booze is my new holier than thou mantra 🎉 ….. dull
That’s precisely where you’re going wrong and why you have to live your life through me and other fabulously wealthy cruisers 😂
ever heard of Byron Katie and her "The Work"? it's basically an approach to see a "problem" situation from a different POV.
what if what you're "dreading so" was a totally joyful experience instead? what would "magic" (or mischief) you need to bring to the day to make _that_ your outcome? "what would this be like if it _wasn't bad_?"(TM)...
I'm not suggesting that you engage everyone in all-day rowdy poker hands, but perhaps try _something_ no one expects and everyone will enjoy. be the one who shifts the tone, who heals the mood. amaze yourself. and your relations...
I like your suggestion but I’m at an event so I’ll just grin and bear it 🤙
