I'm not sure what's worse, calling in sick today when I'm perfectly fine, or being cursed with such guilt and anxiety that I've now pissed away the entire morning and afternoon sitting at my computer, googling excuses. Because we all know that a brief voice message explanation sent to the boss at 7:30 AM is never the end of the discussion.

The best call in sick from work excuse that I've ever heard of was the guy who couldn't come in because he snowboarded off his roof while drunk and broke bones. You can use that.
You're going thru blogging withdrawls.
stomach flu, you dont have to fake sounding stuffed up or coughing, its all about the ass issues. They usually never ask anymore questions either, trust me, "stomach flu" has kept me out a few days.
Why should you have to explain anything? You're given a certain amount of personal days a year, why not use it? You reason for taking a personal day is none of their business.
I agree with Chris, just say "I was sick motherfucker, deal with it! This conversation is over" and walk away. Im sure you wont get fired for that. Or you could just you were sick and not the other stuff I dunno.
I agree with Chris and Larry - I use the "I was sick motherfucker" excuse all the time. OK, well, without the motherfucker part. It seems the bigger issue is: does anyone at work read your blog?
