Go for the buffalo.

Your mother's buffalo fell off the roof, swallowed your bus pass, and is sad.

Even when I *AM* sick, I don't go into specifics. I say I'm calling in sick, which is all anyone needs to know.

I always use the vision problem one. "I just can't see coming in today"

I challenge you to come up with a story involving all top ten excuses.

I'd do it myself. but my ~~mother~~ wife says I have to do chores.

You're sad because you didn't get to snowboard off the roof because your wife said you had too many chores to do. To top it all off, you had morning sickness and then found yourself locked in the bathroom with a buffalo who ate your bus pass.

I once managed someone who phoned in for a couple of days off because his grandmother had just died and he needed to be with his mum. Turned out she was still alive. What a scumbag.

None of those, keep it vague. "Bowel" or "female" troubles are best - no one wants specifics.
