What's your excuse?

I thought it would be fun to do a post where everyone tells their best excuse(s) not to exercise. You can post a few if you have an arsenal!
Here are mine:
My toe hurts, I broke it on Christmas morning (while this one is valid, I do sometimes play it up a bit more than necessary)
I don't have time (I just don't want to MAKE time)
The weather is crappy (I'm getting better about this one, I've been going to my mom's and using her treadmill if I cannot run outside)
Ok so what have you got? What's your reason for not working out?

    I need sleep to be healthy so I should sleep instead of working out (when I am getting about 8 hours anyway).

    Luckily this time I haven't been hearing excuses go through my head. When all the treadmills were full at the hotel last week I went for a run outside!

    We switched to 4 tens at work. My gym time was 5-6, start work at 7. . . now I have to be at work AT 6.

    I've been rocking the 4:30 is too early excuse for a week and a half now.

    Stomach flu.
    I took 9 days off but got back in it this morning. It felt awesome to just pick back up and run for 25 minutes straight after 9 days off. I'm tougher than I thought!

    My best excuse is I've already messed up on the diet portion for today so why work out? What good will it do?? That's also my excuse to eat more. It's not going to hurt the day is already lost.. .NOT!!!!!
