I am one of those always "arrive" late people....(10 or 15 minutes)but I do not call folks late...OR early for that matter....Its 5:15 am here in Utah and 6:15 back home....I would "NEVER" call unless I "KNEW" it was okay...

But my folks use to say all the time that I would be late to my own funeral...........I was known as "POKEY" when I was a kid.....
Its not that I intend to be late....I just always try to do "just one more thing" before I go.....

Besides as far as the mealtimes....."I" am usually the one cooking so we eat when "I" say so!!!!!lol
