Once it involved a difficult flat (tight 20" tire, pinched the spare tube) and company coming to our house for the evening, so there was a schedule to be maintained. I made the call, Mrs. A came and got me, all was well.
The other time it involved my inner ear acting up and being a little dizzy all morning, then going to full-on vertigo on the ride in. Spent 45 minutes sitting on the curb halfway to work with no change, so I got up and carefully rode to light rail to go home. Got home, threw up, and slept it off.
