When yo have to be somewhere(other than work) are you
1. early
2. right on time
3. "yup (your name here) is late as usual" is frequently heard
Bonus question :
If you answered #3 do friends/family tell you the meeting time is 30 mins or more than it really is in hopes you will be on time
Just to be fair extra credit :
Have you ever told someone to meet you earlier than the real time in hopes that they will be on time ?
"When Yo"? Good morning Karla and everyone else! Or should I say "Yo! Good morning Karla!" - Are we Italian today? If so, I think I'll have eggs and Linguine for breakfast!
I think 1, 2, and 3 apply to me. For the most part, I'm either early or on time, but on occasions, I'll be late also.
My best friend, whom I've known since high school, he's always late, so whenever we set up something, I usually set it up 30 minutes earlier than the actual time. You can count on the sun rising and setting everyday, death, taxes, and my friend always being late!
I usually am early, but there have been times when I just barely make it, but those were times where traffic was an issue, not because my procrastinating.
My daughter, though, is one who we need to set her timing to an HOUR early for some things, that girl got lost using one of those GPI devices and was an hour late picking up my son from LAX, lol.
I'm always on time. I have a friend who is always an hour or more late (I think she likes to make that entrance - it drives us all crazy). Another friend is always on time, and I do appreciate it, because I don't have transportion and she's my driver
Early. If it's some place I've never been, I will drive it a day or two in advance to make sure I know where it is and see how long it takes to get there.
Extra credit: I haven't but I know people who do for those few lost souls among us.

Actually, Mike, that was pretty tame. You can come out of your room.
I'm terminally early. Hey, ya never know. You get there early, you might get out early! I've threatened to tell people (hey, Sis, are ya listening???) an earlier time to get them there when they should be, but I don't think I ever have.
Just left DH off at the airport, so he's celebrating the anniversary of the 1st commercial flight. Poor fella's a mess. He took not one but two pills to calm down. I told him I was going to pin a note on his shirt to make sure he's on that flight.
As far as Nat'l no pants day.. I knew there was a reason I put on a skirt! LOL
