The best reason to be late to work

corviI have finally concluded my decades-long research into work-related tardiness. After arriving late at work hundreds of times for various reasons, repeating each several times (SCIENCE!), I can finally say, p < .0001, that I have conclusively determined the single best reason to be late to work:
The Best Reason is that the ferry had to turn off its motors and coast for a long while, due to orcas being too close to it. And also it was in the soft blue and gold predawn, with the light-that-would-be filtering around the islands and clouds. And also orcas are sleek and gleaming and curved and they reflect every part of the scene and you could see golden dawn-that-would-be and the blue slate clouds and the ferry's running lights and the dark shadows of the islands gleaming on their flanks, every one an entire dawn sky surging out of the blue-black sea and vanishing again.
(Perhaps this is what Lisa Frank was trying to show us all along.)
