Need an Escape This Holiday? Don’t Worry — There’s an App for That, Too

I've had the song lyric "Christmastime is coming" stuck in my head all week! It's also true -- Christmastime is coming, and that means spending time with family that you don't see very often. A real chance to bond, share life and laugh with your relatives.

But on the off chance that you get bored or just want to sneak away after Uncle Al starts hitting the bottle or Aunt Donna wants your help in the kitchen, here are a few websites that will keep you preoccupied and looking like you're industriously catching up with some work from the office.

Draw a Stickman should keep you busy for a solid 15 minutes

Thug Life Shirts will have you cracking up and shopping for a new sweater or hoodie. Trust me: You won't be disappointed by some of the sayings and you could spend as much time on there as you want.

Or if you really want to have some fun, you can Elf Yourself or your family (especially the ones who annoy you as they continue talking around the table) into holiday creatures and generate a nice little greeting for your own amusement ... or maybe public consumption.

But in all seriousness, we do hope that you enjoy the family time and know that we only share this help if you really need it.
