Sorry I was unable to ___ because….
- the Loyal Order of White Castle was meeting at the same time.
- I was playing ping-pong.
- I was playing XBox.
- I didn’t get to work until 11am.
- I couldn’t find the indicated conference room with a map, sextant, compass, GPS, diving rod, and several readings of appropriate entrails.
- I was busy juggling.
- I was at lunch ’til 2pm.
- I chose not to go to bed until 3am, and a nuclear explosion couldn’t wake me at 7, let alone my 20 year old Sony clock radio
