B: What happened that you didn't get it done?<br>

A:I had to watch a football game instead.<br>

B: Well, you had more than one day; couldn't you have fit it in on another day?<br>

A: Yes, I think so.<br>

B: Either way, I only allow one missed assignment¹ per semester². When will you be turning the make-up in?<br>

A:I'll make it up next week.<br>
