Mental note: always take my phone when going out into the work hall. Then I can pretend type and carry on bogus conversations with nobody. Most importantly I wouldn’t have to talk to people I don’t want to because I would be otherwise fictitiously engaged.
Absolutely but be careful letting people know how much fiction you’re dealing with. Most humans can’t handle too much in public. Cats on the other hand…
Yesterday I pulled up behind a silver car waiting at a stoplight. There was another white car to my right, double parked with the blinkers on. Maybe a foot from my passenger side door. Three cars packed together like a Tetris L.
An older, burly dude was walking slowly down the sidewalk, eyeing the parked white car. I assumed it to be his. I also knew there was no way in hell he’d be able to open his driver’s side door. There wasn’t any room with his double park for him to get in.
I started to feel tense. Totally ready for the stoplight to turn green so this whole situation would go away. I like stuff to go away.
Can I use that excuse in other social situations? “I’d love to come to your party, but I’m fictitiously engaged that evening.”
