A childhood belief about weeing and pooing

When I was a schoolgirl, the teacher always would ask if someone needed "to be excused" as a way of asking if anyone needed to go to the bathroom. I got used to the phrase as meaning that. Then one day I caused quite a laugh on the playground when the teacher saw I was having some sort of difficulty and asked wahat was wrong. I replied, "I stepped in a place where a dog got excused."
