"I need to return some video tapes."

You could just tell them your social capital is spent and leave.
I've been more honest about that as I've gotten older, to others and myself. Like, if I have obligations coming up, I'm gonna plan a recovery day without. I'm gonna show up, do my best, then let the host know I'm tired when I've run out of socialization and leave before I get too awkward and distant. It's hard but worthwhile to just be honest how you're feeling.

Me: “ I gotta go pick up my grandma at the airport.”
Everyone else: “ dude your grandma died in 2008.”
Me: *violently shits pants and run screaming out the door. -
I have to return some video tapes.
Do you like Huey Lewis and the news?

Their early work was a little too new wave for my tastes.

When Sports came out in '83, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically.

Ok. One of us trips and breaks the sound system, the second coughs up a nasty furball in the pool and the last one uses the snack buffet as a litterbox.
Afterwards, we meet at the backdoor in 5 and fake out a mice chase. -
"I have to go feed the cat" - used this when grandma was calling and didn't want to talk
"I need to let the dogs out" is a good one, too.

One of the few things I've gotten really good at when I'm at a party is leaving. I've worked it to the point where I can grab one or two folks who I care about and say goodbye, then slip off. And thank god. The worst experiences of my life were when someone else drove and I had to wait for them.

I always just sneak off into a corner and listen to music if I can.

Gastrointestinal distress.
Hurriedly go to the bathroom. Stay there about 15 mins. Return and politely excuse yourself. Someone will have noticed that you spent the last 15 mins in the bathroom.

The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost.

Yeah, my wife can drag out goodbyes, but when I'm on my own, or when I can just walk home, I just get up, say "All right, I'm leaving, see you guys later," and then I just leave. Been doing it for 20 years at this point. I'm not an introvert either, I enjoy parties, but I know when enough is enough, and I just leave. I will see these people again, some of them soon, no need for long good-byes.
