    find one person at the party (usually a close and relatively sober friend) and let them know that I am leaving. This way, in 30-60 minutes when people are wondering where I am, that person can pipe up and inform them I left. It feels a little less rude that way.
-That's courteous of you. Otherwise people start to worry. She's been kidnapped. Again. Every time we hang out EH get's kidnapped.

I'm actually the jerk that would try to get you to stay. I never want to the fun to stop. I was just talking with b_b about that. I can't understand how some people are so quick to call it a night :)

I promise not to ghost at the DC meetup. I was actually just thinking about that as I wrote the post and I was like "small group of people, first time hanging out...can't/not gonna ghost out of that one!" I will even endeavor to stay up past bedtime, if it comes to that. ;)

-It will. Like I said, I will be the one making sure everyone stays out way later than they ought to ;)
