ReplyDeletelol, gosh. i consider all of these plausible excuses. what does that tell you?
ReplyDeleteyet i am insanely anal about punctuality; go figure.
You would have loved me as a teenager. Ha! I perfected my moms signature and just wrote "Please excuse Lindsay at 12:30 today for a Dr's appt." Worked like a charm. I even kept different forms of stationary in my locker to mix it up a little so I wouldn't get caught :)
ReplyDeleteLOL! You could write a book about being a school secretary based on all the excuses you hear. Those are hilarious!
ReplyDeleteI see a lOT of pet related excuses - thats good for my line of work - if they are true... :)
ReplyDeletevery funny list. (and i love the first song you have playing. beautiful!)
