Hola people! I have a serious problem. Had AVPD my whole life and always trying to avoid gatherings. Now lately last 8 months I have been working part time trying to function, but the social part is very difficult! And it has been planned for quite some time now to have a christmas party for everybody at work (incl. their wifes/husbands) So I have planned out this perfect plan to avoid this event, call in the day of the party and say that my grandmother has had a stroke and is probably at the end of her life...saying that I have to visit her in the hospital and take care of different things...and so this is what I did, today.
And suddenly listening to the radio the say weather forecast for this THURSDAY, WTF?!?!? I thought it was friday today, and the party is of course on friday...so now I have really ****ed up....please any good advice??

Well, I guess you are calling in for two days then.

It probably would have been a lot easier to just have gone to work and complained of your stomach hurting.... and then go home and give someone a call and say that you started throwing up so you aren't going to attend.

You will probably have a lot of people asking about your grandmother for the next few weeks.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
