Unfortunately due to other matters I don’t have the bandwidth today.

Let’s schedule a follow-up to discuss for a later date so I can give this the focus it warrants.

This is the one. Polite and professional, and also acknowledges the importance of the other person’s viewpoint.

This is why I love working in a blue collar field. Who needs professionalism. “Sorry boss, brain’s fucked today. Explain it at me like I’m an apprentice.”

What’s the priority on this? I’ve been a little scattered today.

Bear with me, I’ve been running around all day, and I need to catch up and refocus.

Depends on context. If it’s after a bad blunder it’s probably a poor reply, because it makes it seem like you’re trying to cover it up.

“I need my coffee” has never failed me!
