The other day my friend mentioned, "I'm too tired to go to work, so I'm going to stay home tomorrow." In which I replied, "Playing hooky."
Playing Hooky is to stay home or skip work, school or activity where your attendance is mandatory without being sick, holiday or having an excuse.
Common playing hooky activities include:
going to the movies; going to a sporting event; going to the beach for swimming, surfing or other beach activities; going to a party; staying home to sleep, read or other relaxing activities.
How often do you play hooky? What do you do when you play hooky? Let us know in the comments or you can send us an email at chromatic.english@gmail.com.
