Excuse log number 051806

Today there is a high ozone warning, so I’m not going to workout.

 

Normally that would merely be a reason to not workout rather than a mere excuse.  However, this morning I had already decided that I didn’t feel like working out when I found out there was a high ozone warning, so the high ozone didn’t prevent me from working out, it merely validated my initial laziness.  Therefore, the “reason” for not working out has been busted down to a mere excuse for not working out.

 

Sure, it’s not as creative as “Had I not woken up early and noticed that my alarm wasn’t turned on I would have overslept; therefore, despite being awake 5 minutes before my alarm is about to go off, I will not turn my alarm on in order to ensure that I wake up in 5 minutes—on time—but rather I’ll just go back to sleep and decide that I overslept (even though I actually woke up early).” 

 

But it’ll still do in a pinch.

 

Enjoy your Thursday.
