Shit happens. If anyone asks, tell the truth - you came home 17:30 and crashed because you weren't feeling well. Apologizing profusely is a good start after fucking up, taking blame and admitting your fuckup (especially to avoid having someone else do it for you) is a sign of adulthood and professionalism. Learn from your mistake and move on, and try not to make a huge deal out of it the next day - it happened, it wasn't completely out of forgetfulness or carelessness, you apologized, move on with your life. Bringing it up again with everyone after that won't win you any points.
I woke up on a work day once, room was dark, clock said 12:30, didn't know if PM or AM - then the phone rings, boss wants to know what the fuck is going on and why I'm not in the meeting we set up with another team. It's uncomfortable situation but happens to everyone eventually. I just made some excuse about not feeling well and apologized, then went back to bed. In my 4 years there it only happened once.
