Another Rule of Nature?

Ever notice that whenever you start off on time for anything, you arrived well on time; and when you start off late, everything seems to work against you.  It seems to be the rule of nature that whenever you're late for an important appointment or event, everything goes wrong.  You can't find the car or house keys, your bag, or umbrella.  You suddenly have car problems.  Every traffic light you get in your route is a red one.  You encounter traffic, road work, detours, etc. etc.  And, of course, once arrived at your destination, you can't find parking and if you do, it's several blocks away.  On the flip side, however, when you have time to kill and leave the house early, you get every green light.  You encounter no traffic, no road blocks, no detours whatsoever. And of course, you find parking close enough, so you end up getting to your destination way on time.  Today I had a doctor's appointment for 2:30PM.  I was ready by 1:30, so I decided to leave early hoping that they would take me earlier.  Well, everything that I said would happen, did happen.  I deliberately drove slowly and carefully.  I encountered no problems or setbacks at all.  But, had I been late or rushing to get out of the house, I would have encountered every conceivable setback.  So yes, I'm convinced that it is a rule of nature that whenever you're early then everything goes right; and whenever you're late, then you can expect that everything that can possibly go wrong, will do so.
