I don’t want to make excuses for having mixed feelings about excuses.
When I saw today’s Daily Bitch calendar…
.
… I knew I wanted to ask a question on social media about excuses.
.
I’m not going to make excuses for including so many responses about excuses because I love other people’s perspectives and ingenuity.
Here are some quotes about excuses:
.
Now I don’t need to any excuses to link to yesterday’s post about Make Your Own Luck Day.
My excuses for not promoting my new album more aggressively are (1) I don’t like bothering people and (2) I need a break!
Do you see any excuses in my other images for today?
.
On Just Because Day, “just because” seems like a fine excuse.
My excuses for not including “I Don’t Wanna Be Late (Don’t Wanna Be Early Either)” on my new album were (1) it was too long and (2) it needed the video context of the live concert to work. Also, a musician I know walked out on me when I was rehearsing it with him. What do you think about those excuses?

You don’t need to make excuses about leaving a comment, below.
Thanks to all who are here for my excuses, including YOU!
LOL! There used to be a yearly party that I always felt compelled to attend, but was at the point where I was happy leaving early. One year, after I had made the rounds (it was a garden party and she had a beautiful garden), seen almost all of the people I was there to see, had several satisfying conversations, I finally excused myself from the table near the exit where I had positioned myself for getting out of there. “You’re leaving?” someone asked me. “Yes,” I said. “There’s something on TV I have to watch.” Now, that was true, and someone else gasped, “You’re leaving to watch TV???” I felt a small wriggle of guilt, but I squashed it. “Why yes, I am.” And I left.
Good for you, Barbara!
Bitch? What’s the use. Always a new reason to around the next bend.

Always good to hear from you, Alan.
I have reached the stage of my life where a good excuse is not wanting to go, Ann.
That’s good, Mark!
