I have learned to psych myself up before these things. I think of questions that I can ask the people I have to deal with that keeps the conversation away from me and makes the people involved feel like I am engaged. Sometimes it actually works and I become involved in a full fledged conversation
I don't like the idea of tricking myself into engagement, but I know it's necessary to keep people at bay
