Me neither.

For flying, it probably helps that--much as I hate 4am pickups--my car service won't really let me cut things close in any case. But I also figure it's painful anywat so why stack on stress associated with possibly being late.

I think you can only do that if you're not stressed by it and otherwise not afraid of the consequences.

Yeah. You have to make the mental tradeoff that you'll save an hour+ of more or less brainless time at an airport every time you walk through the door in exchange for having one or two additional blown-up or partially blown-up trips per year--which will happen to some degree anyway for reasons beyond your control.

I was thinking that. It would send me to an early grave if I tried it.
