Well, honey, back in the day, folks used to say "see a man about a mule" as a polite way to excuse themselves to go take care of some private business, like using the restroom or having a drink. It's kind of like saying "I need to powder my nose" without actually talking about powder or noses. So, next time you need a clever excuse to step away, just tell 'em you're gonna see a man about a mule!
