Karen, ditto with the staff parties. Oh, the lies I've come up with in the past--I've probably attended 50% of the ones that I should have. Getting drunk and making an as* of myself there was never possible/acceptable.
Kissing 200 people is worth avoiding Karen. Which brings me to a semi-new topic (well in the ADD range). Do you hate touching people or having people touch you? I grew in a large extended French family who always kissed and hugged and shook hands and grabbed cheeks and touched and poked each other even during a conversation. I'm wondering if this is an ADD thing--disliking being touched so much. I mean just the thought of kissing 200 people starts nauseaous feelings in my stomach.

ps I probably wouldn't have been invited to your wedding, but I would have gone.
No, this does not sound avoidant to me at all!
