Adrian is a nice small town in Lenawee County Michigan, about 90 minutes southwest of Detroit. It's the kind of place I wouldn't mind making a home: small town living close enough to the big city for big city conveniences. I was just there yesterday.
The profusion of cell phones means that cities such as Adrian are very close. Close enough that customers can easily reach you there, as one did me late yesterday afternoon. He wanted to drop off his machine for repair. "I'm sorry, but I'm in Adrian and I'll be late today. Bring it to my shop tomorrow," I explained.
"Oh. Well, could I bring it now and you check it tomorrow?"
Oh-kay. What I did not ask (although I wanted to) was, what part of 'I'm in Adrian and I'll be late bring it tomorrow" was not clear?
I'm asking for a friend.
