My older brother used to call me Dolores when I was in grade school because I had so many aches and pains. I used to get terrible neck aches, so bad I couldn't turn my head and had to stay home. The next day my mom would have to write a note: Please excuse Lydia's absence. She had a 'pain in the neck'.
I always wondered why she laughed when she wrote it and the teacher giggled when she read it.
