A holiday cocktail party is where....
... you are always the first couple to arrive no matter how many times you drive around the block.
... every year you have the same conversation with the same people about who you both still are.
... some stranger learns more about you in an hour than your spouse has learned in a lifetime.
...the host and hostess attempt to bring compatible people together by separating married couples.
... there is a rotation that brings married couples back together again every twenty minutes.
... you're always sorry you wrote anything on a napkin.
... nobody thinks it's getting late until the first couple leaves, and then everybody thinks it's getting late.
Happy Holidays!

Lol, all too true. This is why I don't do cocktail parties aside from the fact that they're populated by people outside my tax bracket!
