Technically Reclined

Adjective to describe someone who is skilled enough to afford being lazy.

Literal sense: Be able to solve the problem without getting out of bed.

"Did you have to go into the office to fix the issue?"

"No. I stayed in bed and talked them through it while half asleep. I'm technically reclined like that"

Reclaiming my time 

Phrase used in congressional hearings when politicians are allotted a specific amount of time to speak and/or question those called to testify at such hearings. If during their allotted time they deem a person who is testifying to be lying, misleading, or drawing out the time by not answering the questions directly, the congressperson may reclaim their time. This is allowed within the United States House of Representatives rules and procedures. Most often attributed to Congresswoman Rep. Maxine Waters (Democrat, California) from a hearing in 2017 when she was questioning Secretary of Finance Steven Mnuchin.

"I'm reclaiming my time...Please, will you respond to the question of why I did not get a response, me and my colleagues, to the May 23rd letter?" ~ Maxine Waters
