I was sprayed by a skunk.
I tripped over my dog
and was knocked unconscious.
My bus broke down and was held up by robbers.
I
was arrested as a result of mistaken identity.
I forgot to come
back to work after lunch.
I couldn’t find my shoes.
I hurt myself bowling.
I was
spit on by a venomous snake.
I totaled my wife’s jeep in a
collision with a cow.
A hitman was looking for me.
My curlers burned
my hair and
I had
to go to the hairdresser.
I eloped.
My brain went to
sleep and I couldn’t wake it up.
My cat unplugged my alarm clock.
I had to be
there for my
husband’s grand jury trial
.I had to ship my
grandmother’s bones to
India.
I forgot what day of the week it was.
Someone
slipped drugs in my drink
last night.
A tree fell on my car.
My monkey died.
