Wednesday's Excuse-Late Edition

So I?m sitting at the Mid-Town Station Coffee House and Wine Bar. We just call it the Mid-Town. Great restaurant by the Sound Transit Station in scenic downtown Sumner, Washington. The nice thing about a city like Sumner is that you tend to run into people that run the small businesses that are the backbone of our country. The Mid-Town is where a lot of them hang out. It?s also a good place to get some free Wi-Fi access, a great Northwest cup of coffee and half price nachos during happy hour.

As I?m sitting here, I run into one of the local business owners. He asks what I?m doing. I tell him, ?It?s Wednesday and if I don?t get a real life work excuse posted on my Blog, I?ll have to post a Thursday?s excuse for not posting a Wednesday excuse which will make two excuses in one week.? It was obvious he didn?t get it. That?s ok. So I asked one of the servers for a good excuse she has used. Probably wasn?t a good idea. After all, if it works, you don?t want to clue your boss in who might be reading this Blog. We agreed to invoke the attorney-client privilege. So her excuse is, ?I never call in sick unless I?m really sick.? Nothing. Undeterred, my server asked the cook. Still nothing. I?m starting to get a little desperate. Then I remembered, I had an excuse just in case I ran into a problem. It?s not great, but here?s Wednesday?s excuse:

I am stuck in the blood pressure machine down at Wal-Mart.

By the way, if you happen to drop in at the MidTown, tell them you read about them on Rod the lawyer's Blog.
