Such a fuss getting to the party (2-2)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

to-do

'such a fuss' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'to the party' is the wordplay.
'the party' becomes 'do' (do can informally mean a party).
'to'+'do'='TO-DO'

'getting' is the link.

(Other definitions for to-do that I've seen before include "Fuss and bother" , "Quarrel" , "Fuss or commotion" , "Kerfuffle" , "Bustle" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
