Superbowl Sunday

Better get to Safeway and pick up your chicken wings now before they are sold out.  This year will be different as the staple party that has been going on for 15+ years is not happening this year.  I guess the hostess has finally reached her limit, too.  In turning the tables, I've invited the hostess to my house for a reprieve and also a hiding place to escape the people who did not get the clue that she was serious about not hosting 100+ people this year. 

Her party was always HUGE.  I can appreciate the prep work, work, and then clean up that's involved.  I don't blame her for wanting a break.  It's astounding how many people take the party as a given and are planning on showing up at her house anyway despite the repeated warnings that she is not hosting this year. 

That's why the hostess will not be home. 

Come Superbowl Sunday the doors to her house will be locked, blinds will be closed, and angry dog will be running loose in the yard.  Hostess will be at my house for a well deserved break this year eating crab, chicken wings, etc., etc.... and not worrying about the unattended children with muddy shoes jumping on her bed.
