I had multiple catastrophes -- involving inclement weather, felled trees, and a series of cancelled/missing/severely delayed trains -- on the day of my interview for the medical school that I eventually got into, and I was on the phone every half-hour to reassure them that I really and truly was on my way. In the end, thanks to having originally left three hours of wiggle room, I was there five minutes before my scheduled time. But I cannot comprehend people not calling in before an interview that they care about if there's even the slightest possibility that they'll be late.

I miss your posts!!!!

Thought of you on Labor Day when I cruised through rainy Savannah on my way to Tybee. I though, shoot, if I can get stung by enough jellyfish maybe I'll have to go to the ER.

Alas, it was not to be. Those damn jellyfish only stung some kids nearby, not us. Those bastards have all the luck.

I had an interview at a doctor's office once where I got lost on the way there, so I called right away to say I would be a few minutes late. He sounded confused as to why I bothered to call him (and he ended up keeping me waiting about 20 minutes, anyway, once I did show up), but knowing him now, he probably did appreciate the heads-up. This is not a man who appreciates being left in the dark.
