My best excuse ever was that my great grandmother died. It was total bullshit. I had a new girlfriend that I wanted to hang out with. I told him I would have to put off starting the project for a week or so and he was very cool about it. When I finally got back in contact with the client about 8-9 days later, my great grandmother really did die.

I gave up and refunded his money and apologized for being a jackass. That was the last time I ever made up bullshit stories to put off a job. I'm lucky GFY wasn't around yet. I deserved to get publicly humiliated over that one.
