Baby Showers?!?! A plea for advice on how to survive...

So, I've been invited to a baby shower in a weeks time. Never been to one and I'm here to ask what I should do. How do I deal with a room of people cooing over a belly bump? What is expected of me? What should I expect of the event? How long is long enough to stay so as not to be rude, but not drain my social battery?

Steps I have taken so far (in chronological order):
1) Located hip flask that has a book shaped container
2) Responded to the RSVP
3) Posting here (syuu gave me a kick up the bum )

Please Matazonians, I implore you to share you survival techniques and offer any advice on etiquette and social juice depletion management.

Android Apps!

I have arrived in the future! Or, I have a smart phone now and am wondering what apps you folks use/ recommend/ run from for Android.

So far I've got these I'm rather liking:

- AVG's Antivirus for it's, well virus scanning stuffs, and the additional phone locator thingy (thought Motorola offer this too)
- Bump for sharing media/ contact info between phones (also available for the iPhone, which kinda makes up for it's lack of blutoothyness). It's quite nice once you get the hang of it, and worth getting if you swap pictures and stuffs with others often.
- Drop Box for up/ down loading content and sharing stuff. I find this particularly quick to use when sharing pics with the fella.
- Last.fm I really like this app for listening to pretty much my entire music collection as well as other 'radio' stations, without having it all on my SD card. Though I mostly use it on wifi.
