I am guilty of using "I'll let you go," when on the phone.

It sounds clumsy and disingenous to my own ears when I say it.

I will work on not using it anymore.

"I gotta go now," is honest and simple.

I do enjoy using a handful of different phrases that to others might seem
hackneyed and over-the-top cliche,
but I love them.

"Heavens to Betsy" ( I believe the origin of this, is still a mystery)

Many years ago, I had an elderly babysitter who used, "oh! my lands",
as a mild exclamation.

I wonder who I am "driving crazy"...with this one.
