I need a way to decline a phone call with a friend. I originally asked to talk to this person, so we decided to talk tonight, but I feel uncomfortable doing it now. I don't feel like being honest about why I don't want to talk to them, so I need you to make up some excuse. Format your response as five different options for text messages I can send. Don't make them formal but avoid sounding overly casual because we aren't super close. Number each option. Include two options that are somewhat unbelievable.

(1) Hey, I know we said something about talking on the phone later tonight, but I forgot that I have some family stuff planned. Let's get in touch sometime soon. Hope you're well!

(2) How's it going? I know we were planning on chatting later, but I don't think I'm going to be able to. I'm a bit exhausted after this work week, so I just need to chill out and watch some shows.

(3) I don't think I'm going to able to talk to you on the phone later tonight, sorry. I had to wake up super early this morning so I will probably pass out after dinner time. Maybe we can reschedule for some time next week?

(4) Hey, I don't think I'm going to be able to talk to you on the phone later, I accidentally spent all of my rent money on Chipotle so I need to cancel my phone line for a little while to cut back on costs. Hmu on IG or something.

(5) Hi, I was really looking forward to our call later but I don't think I'm going to be able to keep that appointment. One of my friends just won the lottery so we booked the first flight to Vegas we could find. I know, I thought they'd allow phones on private jets too! Let's talk some other time.
