if you have to think of an excuse when you need it, you're screwed. excuses are things you have to invest in and cash in on when you need.
for example, i'm looking for a car. not because i need one - i just want one. call it a midlife crisis. i've been doing this for six months. currently, this will provide to be an excuse if i find myself needed to drive out to the other side of town.
while i'm out there, if anything were to happen - i'm covered because i went out to test drive a car.
the car one is an example - two things to remember. 1) never have a routine - never leave at the same time for work and come back at the same time. never. 2) have activities, missions, or just other things that you are involved in which can always provide cover for the hobby..ie - be involved in a charity program, helping the needy, a bible study..something that no one will question. and truly engage in them for what they are worth, but also establish an excuse for getting away in the future.
