Today I woke up, saw the weather was IFR, called into work sick, (Cough, Cough /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif), filed, jumped into a nice 172SP, VOR1, no workie, got a 182RG, tookoff, started into the clouds, engine/prop starts sugring, me no can fix, get vectors back to homebase, make a crappy crosswind landing, call it quits!

Third time might be a charm, but I opted for the couch!
 
Sometimes you just arent supposed to be flying.....see what you get for playing hooky? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif whenever something like that happens i usually take it as a sign. how low were the celiings. did you at least get to shoot an approach back in?
 
hey at least you dont have to go to work ;-)

I actually stopped playing hookey after an experience I had in high school involving karma. I didn't want to go to school one day so I faked being sick. The next day I had bronchitis that made me cough for about a week straight. Though on the positive side of things I did get to have codeine and I had a 6 pack after I was done because of all the coughing I did.
